- Description: The importance of information in business today has made the need to properly secure this asset evident. Information security has become a responsibility for all managers of an organization. To better support more efficient management of information security, timely information security management information should be made available to all managers. Smaller organizations face special challenges with regard to information security management and reporting due to limited resources (Ross, 2008). This dissertation discusses a Framework for Information Security Management Information (FISMI) that aims to improve the visibility and contribute to better management of information security throughout an organization by enabling the provision of summarized, comprehensive information security management information to all managers in an affordable manner.

- Description: The motivation for this study argued that current information security ed- ucation systems are inadequate for educating all users of computer systems world wide in acting securely during their operations with information sys- tems. There is, therefore, a pervasive need for information security knowledge in all aspects of modern life. E-Learning 2.0 could possi- bly contribute to solving this problem, however, little or no knowledge currently exists regarding the suitability and practicality of using such systems to infer information security knowledge to learners.
