Abstract

Different people have different ideas of precisely what Information Security Management (InfSecMan) entails, but no consolidated approach, from the view of the process involved in InfSecMan, could be found. This paper looks at InfSecMan from a process management point of view, and identifies the processes and subprocesses involved. These identified processes are then represented in a hierarchical structure. By approaching InfSecMan from a process management viewpoint, it becomes possible to measure the performance of those people responsible for InfSecMan, because now specific responsibility results can be set and measured.
