Resistance is futile; Vendor availability: a key factor for outsourcing in Chilean ICT sector; How well are information risks being communicated to your computer end-users?; User-centred security applied to the development of a management information system; Improving protection mechanisms by understanding online risk; Usable set-up of runtime security policies; Toward viable information security reporting systems; On the imbalance of the security problem space and its expected consequences

Sommario/riassunto

The first two papers in this e-book give a global perspective on Information Management issues. The remaining papers are security-focused, and have been selected for inclusion from the International Symposium on Human Aspects of Information Security & Assurance (HAISA 2007), which took place in Plymouth, UK, on 10 July 2007. The theme of the event reflected that a significant aspect of protection comes down to the attitudes, awareness, behaviour and capabilities of the people involved.
