The paper presents recommended methods of information security systems designs. The analysis comprises the essence and elements of information security, but also the relations between them. The systemic approach to the studied area required providing characteristics of legal basis and information security models – ISO/IEC and TISM. Also characterised were the implementation, exploitation, and monitoring methods of information systems. The paper concludes with a presentation of results of empirical research conducted in public and private sector entities, as well as conclusions and recommendations.

Efficiency of business processes in modern organizations depends on the capabilities of applied information technologies. The article describes and analyzes the role and features of audit tools and other methodological tools and models in ensuring the quality and security of information systems. The standard’s principles are reviewed, as well as the importance of meeting business needs. In order to protect virtual values in a company’s system environment, the importance of using information security models is revealed. Practical proposals in risk management and information security in information technology are analyzed through the COBIT standard. Measures for protecting the information system of an organization from accidental, deliberate or fake threats are considered. The possibility of using one of the real information security models by the information recipient or provider in accordance with the requirements of external processes is reported. Furthermore, in connection with increase in the number of attack methods and techniques and development of their new tools and vectors, the need to improve and ways to ensure information security are being considered. The essential tasks of security audit are considered, and the stages of their implementation are described. With regard to security of information systems, an analytical model is proposed for determining vulnerability’s numerical value.

"This paper aims to examine the extent of corporate social reporting practices in the annual reports of companies in India and to ascertain the differences if any, between public sector and private sector companies and to investigate what were the determinants of corporate social reporting . The study intends to answer the research questions which include: a) what variables could represent a Conceptual Model of Corporate Social Reporting consists of dependent variables and Independent variables? b) What are the factors of Corporate Social Reporting (COSOR) and how valid and reliable are these factors? c) What is the degree of COSOR by factors in public and private sector companies? d) What are the determinants of COSOR? What is the level of their influence on COSOR? A sample of 120 listed companies of National Stock Exchange of India was chosen and they were stratified in to public and private sector companies. A Corporate social reporting Index was constructed for data collection through content analysis from the annual reports. The results of the study revealed that social accounting information were disclosed in company’s annual reports, chairman’s speech, directors’ reports, notes to accounts, schedule to accounts and auditor’s report. The degree of corporate social reporting varies between public sector and private sector companies. The public sector companies have disclosed more corporate social reporting information than the private sector companies. The study found that higher the level of capital employed, earnings before depreciation and taxes, total assets and total sales higher was the level of corporate social reporting. However, the degree of influence of determinants on corporate social reporting was different among public and private sector companies. Most of the companies have disclosed corporate social information on voluntary basis. To improve the understandably, uniformity, and comparability of corporate social information, this study suggests making it mandatory. A standard format for disclosure of corporate social information shall be prescribed by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs by amending the Indian Companies Act. The concept of social accounting is relatively new in India. This study suggests to include it in the commerce curriculum and also in the curriculum of CA/CWA/CS. Corporate Social Reporting is such a vast area of research that no single study can cover different dimensions related to it. Though some studies including the present study have been conducted on Corporate Social Reporting Practices in India, but still there is much potential of research in this area. Future research in this area will hopefully bring more brightening result measuring and analysing social costs and benefits data by manager as well as by other concerned. Since the subject is in the primary stage, an in-depth research is needed to be done in different sectors such as banking information technology, manufacturing etc. The results are specifically applicable to sample companies and generalisations can be made with caution. The results of the study are based on the data collected from published annual reports of sample companies using content analysis method. Corporate social reporting in company websites, brochures etc are not covered. Social cost and benefit analysis is not covered in this study.

Our study significantly contributes in understanding a comparative framework and the interactions of idiosyncratic and systematic factors for determining non-performing assets (NPA) and rate of recovery for banks in India, as put forward by Basel committee. Although determinants of NPA is very well debated issue, the comparison of public and private sector banks in terms of their assets quality i.e. NPAs and rate of recovery and their determinants like collateral, operational inefficiency, GDP growth rate etc. are the added contribition of this study. We have employed Arrelano–Bond dynamic panel method on 35 banks in India for the period 1998–1999 to 2017–2018 for determinants of NPAs, while determinants of rate of recovery are studied for the period 2003–2004 to 2017–2018. Our findings show that the priority sector loan has significant differences in determining NPA across banks despite them having sufficient collateral. The negative relationship between collateral and recovery, especially for private sector banks, signifies low recovery for illliquid collateral. This study may recommend that a bank with high net interest margin (NIM), high proportion of secured and liquid collateral, and sufficient mix of long- and short-duration loans in line with bank’s asset liability policy can manage their portfolio well.
