Information system integrated security

Abstract

A comprehensive and integrated view on the security of an Information System considering all its parts (hardware, software, human factor, data, and the impact of real world) is presented in the chapter. The security of information systems cannot be solved only by management of Information Technologies, because Information Technologies constitute only a part of Information System. The design of a wellimplemented information security management system is the reliable way towards the safety of information in a company or in an institution. Integrated approach to the security of an Information System is introduced, and recommendations for managing the security of the Information System are given. © 2012, IGI Global.
