This research measured determinants that influence the willingness of IT/IA professionals to recommend Big Data analytics to improve information systems security in an organization. A review of the literature as well as the works of prior researchers provided the basis for formulation of research questions. Results of this study found that security effectiveness, organizational need, and reliability play a role in the decision to recommend big data analytics to improve information security. This research has implications for both consumers and providers of big data analytics services through the identification of factors that influence IT/IA professionals. These factors aim to improve information systems security, and therefore, which service offerings are likely to meet the needs of these professionals and their organizations.

The issue of information systems security, and thus information as key resource in today's information society, is something that all organizations in all sectors face in one way or another. To ensure that information remain secure, many organizations have implemented a continuous, structured and systematic security approach to manage and protect an organization's information from undermining individuals by establishing security policies, processes, procedures, and information security organizational structures. However, despite this, security threats, incidents, vulnerabilities and risks are still raging in many organizations. One of the main causes of this problem is poor understanding of information systems security key success factors. Identifying and understanding of information security key success factors can help organizations to manage how to focus limited resources on those elements that really impact on success, therefore saving time and money and creating added value and further enabling operational business. This research, based on comprehensive literature review, summarizes most cited key success factors of information systems security identified in scientific articles indexed in relevant databases, of which the top three success factors were management support, information security policy and information security education, training and awareness. At the end, article states identified research gaps and provides readers with possible directions for further researches

As the pervasiveness of networks create a more open set of information systems for the mobile and diverse needs of the organization, increased attention must be paid to the corresponding increase in exposure of those systems to attacks from internal and external sources. The first step to preparing the organization against these threats is the development of a systems security policy which provides instruction for the development and implementation of a security posture, as well as provides guidelines for the acceptable and expected uses of the systems. This chapter provides background support for the need for information security policy, and outlines a sample structure that may be used to develop such a policy.

Information security has received a great deal of attention from a number of researchers. However, there has been little research aimed at understanding the dimensions critical for the success of organizational information security programs. This chapter considers a large body of information security literature and organizes the research based on their findings. This taxonomy is used to develop a parsimonious model for information security success within organizations. Also, the utility of the proposed model within the contexts of government and healthcare is considered.

It is widely agreed that information systems security police compliance plays a pivotal role in safeguarding organizational information security. This study empirically investigated organizational and individual factors in predicting employees’ ISSP compliance. With a survey data of 525 civil servants in China, results showed that organizational information security training and information security climate were significantly related to employees’ ISSP compliance. Specifically, information security climate had stronger effect on ISSP compliance than information security training. Furthermore, it was found that employees’ perceived severity, perceived vulnerability and response efficacy were positively related to employees’ ISSP compliance. We discussed the key implications of our findings for managers and researchers.

As information systems become more pervasive within organizations, securing their associated information assets has become a topic of extensive research. However, minimal research has been focused on understanding the dimensions of information systems security within an organizational context. This study organizes a considerable body of information systems security literature based on their findings, and the authors identify core dimensions of information system security success and operationalize them as a model to predict success with information security initiatives. The utility of the proposed model is evaluated for the e-Government context and emergent issues for research and practice are discussed.
