  • The Cyber Security Officer and Privacy, Ethical, and Liability Issues
    The Information Systems Security Officer's Guide, 2016
    Co-Authors: Gerald L. Kovacich
    Abstract:

    This chapter discusses the issues of ethics, privacy, and liability as they relate to the cyber Security Officer.

  • Determining and Establishing Cyber Security Functions
    The Information Systems Security Officer's Guide, 2016
    Co-Authors: Gerald L. Kovacich
    Abstract:

    We began this section of the book with an overview of the duties and responsibilities of the cyber Security Officer and then discussed establishing a cyber Security program and the related cyber Security plans and organization. We will continue the trend to narrow the focus: This chapter describes a process to determine what cyber Security functions are needed to successfully establish a cyber Security program and related organization, as well as how to incorporate those functions into the cyber Security organization's day-to-day level-of-effort work.

  • A Career as a Cyber Security Officer
    The Information Systems Security Officer's Guide, 2016
    Co-Authors: Gerald L. Kovacich
    Abstract:

    The cyber Security Officer professionals of the twenty-first century must possess many skills that differ from those possessed by some current and past cyber Security Officer professionals. In this chapter, the discussion will center on what are the necessary skills that a cyber Security Officer and professional cyber Security staff should possess to be successful, as well as how to establish and maintain a cyber Security career development program. 2

  • The Cyber Security Officer’s Position, Duties, and Responsibilities
    The Information Systems Security Officer's Guide, 2016
    Co-Authors: Gerald L. Kovacich
    Abstract:

    The objective of this chapter is to define the role that the cyber Security Officer will play in a corporation or government agency. In this case, it is the role of the cyber Security Officer in an international corporation. The duties and responsibilities of a cyber Security Officer vary depending on the place of employment. However, in this case, we are assuming the cyber Security Officer has the perfect position because it is one all cyber Security Officers should strive to attain in order to “do it right the first time.”

  • Introduction to Global Information Warfare
    The Information Systems Security Officer's Guide, 2016
    Co-Authors: Gerald L. Kovacich
    Abstract:

    This chapter provides an introduction and discussion of global information warfare (IW). As a professional cyber Security Officer you may not know it as or call it information warfare on a global scale, but we certainly are in a cyber war. Furthermore, if you are to protect the government agency or corporate information, systems, and networks that are your part of the global or national information infrastructure, you better start thinking and acting as if you were in a war because, like it or not, you are.

  • Police and Security Officer Experiences of Occupational Violence and Injury in Australia
    Social Science Research Network, 2011
    Co-Authors: Patricia Ferguson, Timothy James Prenzler, Rick Sarre, Bryan De Caires
    Abstract:

    This study employed national workers’ compensation data to examine and compare the nature and prevalence of work-related injuries and occupational violence experienced by Australian Security Officers and police between 2000 and 2008. The study found that while Security Officers’ work-related injuries overall occurred at half the rate of police Officers’, the rates of occupational violence were about equal and followed the same trend over time — rising during the mid 2000s and then declining steadily. However, injuries to Security Officers appeared more serious than those experienced by police. Security Officers were twice as likely to sustain a head injury and, on average, lost about six weeks more work than police. Compared with all other Australian occupations, Security and police were in the top three highest claiming occupations for work-related injuries and deaths from occupational violence, with Security Officers at number one in both instances. The findings add to the very limited literature on injuries and violence experienced by police and Security Officers. However, the findings also show the need for more research on the specific situational factors involved in injuries and on what works in prevention.

  • uniform application level access control enforcement of organizationwide policies
    Annual Computer Security Applications Conference, 2005
    Co-Authors: Tine Verhanneman, Frank Piessens, Wouter Joosen
    Abstract:

    Fine-grained and expressive access control policies on application resources need to be enforced in application-level code. Uniformly enforcing a single policy (referred to as the organizationwide policy) in diverse applications is challenging with current technologies. This is due to a poor delimitation of the responsibilities of application deployer and Security Officer, which hampers a centralized management of a policy and therefore compromises the uniformity of its enforcement. To address this problem, the concept of an access interface is introduced as a contract between an organization-wide authorization engine and the various applications that need its services. The access interface provides support for the central management of the policy by the Security Officer. By means of a view connector, the application deployer ensures that each application complies with this contract, so that the policy can be enforced

  • Defining the Strategic Role of the Chief Information Security Officer
    Pacific Asia Journal of the Association for Information Systems, 2018
    Co-Authors: Sean B. Maynard, Mazino Onibere, Atif Ahmad
    Abstract:

    The level of sophistication and dynamism of the Security threat environment requires modern organizations to develop novel Security strategies. The responsibility to strategize falls to the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). A review of the Security literature shows there has been little emphasis on understanding the role of the CISO as a strategist. In this research, we conduct a systematic literature review from the disciplines of information Security and strategic management to identify specific attributes required by CISOs to become effective strategists. We discuss these attributes in the context of Information Security Management and argue that CISOs with these attributes or capabilities are better positioned to overcome the existing strategic Security challenges facing organizations.
