This article investigates the transfer of information security breach information between breached firms and their peers. Using a large data set of information security incidents from 2003 to 2013, the results suggest that 1) the effect of information security breach information transfer exists between breached firms and non-breached firms that offer similar products and 2) the effect of information transfer is weaker when the information security breach is due to internal faults or is related to the loss of personally identifiable information. Additional tests demonstrate that the effect of information transfer exhibits consistent patterns across time and with different types of information security breaches. Finally, the effect does not depend on whether the firms are IT intensive. Implications, limitations, and future research are discussed.

Information security problem has become one of the hottest issues in RFID system. More and more researchers begin to study how to provide security protection in the RFID system. In the paper, we mainly research lightweight authentication protocols in RFID system. Firstly, we analyze some protocols. Secondly, we introduce a serverless authentication protocol for RFID system and analyze its security. We find it does not provide forward security. Thirdly, we propose a revised serverless authentication protocol with forward security. It provides two-way authentication and privacy protection, resists tracking and cloning attack as well as the original protocol. Moreover, it provides forward security protection and resists desynchronization attack. For the efficiency, its computational complexity is at the same level with the protocol proposed by Tan et al.
