Threat Modelling

This article describes a practical approach to the issue which is currently an integral part of the development of modern advanced and complex information systems – ICT threat modelling. The article presents the practical validity and process of threat modelling and then describes one of the most popular methods of threat identification and analysis – the so-called STRIDE model.

By applying the concept of natural science to the study of music, on the one hand, we can understand the structure of music macroscopically, on the other, we can reflect on the history of music to a certain extent. Throughout the history of western music, from the classical period to the 20th century, music seems to have gone from order to disorder, but it is still orderly if analyzed carefully. Using the concept of complex information systems can give a good answer in the essence.

Project Data

The relevance of the communication in the complex information system (IS) development projects is becoming issue of primary importance. Various researches show that many projects failed due to inadequate management of communication. Project data exchange is still not performed in a structured and standardised manner, which leads to misunderstandings between team members. Too many complex IS projects do not have established an adequate project communication management subsystems. This paper analyses results of a survey performed on information technology (IT) professionals and presents degree of communication problems during various project phases. (This research was supported by the Croatian Ministry of Science and Technology under projects: "Strategic planning of Information Systems" and "Information Systems Security.) It reveals that average rating of a degree of communication problems varies at different project stages and among different communication subjects. The paper also proposes software tools that, if properly used, might enhance project communication. Such technologies are still not completely mature but they are developing fast and might play an important role in project management, by providing support to its holism.

Technical Issues

Society is demanding larger and more complex information systems to support increasingly complex and critical organisational work. Whilst troubleshooting socio-technical issues in small-to-medium scale situations may be achievable using approaches such as ethnography, troubleshooting enterprise scale situations is an open research question because of the overwhelming number of socio-technical elements and interactions involved. This paper demonstrates proof-of-concept tools for network analysis and visualisation that may provide a promising avenue for identifying problematic elements and interactions among an overwhelming number of socio-technical elements. The findings indicate that computers may be used to aid the analysis of problematic large-scale complex socio-technical situations by using analytical techniques to highlighting elements, or groups of interacting elements, that are important to the overall outcome of a problematic situation.

Recent advances in supply chain management information systems (SCM IS) have enabled firms to more fully collaborate with their supply chain partners — driving out costs while increasing responsiveness to market demands. This chapter examines various types of SCM IS — from traditional EDI systems to more recent Web-services-based e-business applications. It argues that the approach best suited for an organization depends in part on the degree of integration between the partners, the complexity of the business processes, and the number of partners involved. A model is presented for analyzing the costs and benefits that can be expected from each type of SCM IS. The model enables researchers and practitioners to better understand the differences among SCM IS and thus can help reduce the risks of implementing these valuable yet complex information systems.
