This book explores the strategic decisions made by organizations when
implementing cybersecurity controls and leveraging economic models and
theories from the economics of information security and
risk-management frameworks. Based on unique and distinct research
completed within the field of risk-management and information
security, this book provides insight into organizational
risk-management processes utilized in determining cybersecurity
investments. It describes how theoretical models and frameworks rely
on either specific scenarios or controlled conditions and how
decisions on cybersecurity spending within
organizations—specifically, the funding available in comparison to
the recommended security measures necessary for compliance—vary
depending on stakeholders. As the trade-off between the costs of
implementing a security measure and the benefit derived from the
implementation of security controls is not easily measured, a business
leader’s decision to fund security measures may be biased. The
author presents an innovative approach to assess cybersecurity
initiatives with a risk-management perspective and leverages a
data-centric focus on the evolution of cyber-attacks. This book is
ideal for business school students and technology professionals with
an interest in risk management.
