Abstract
Managing security for information assets presents a challenging task. The need for effective information security management assumes greater importance with growing reliance on distributed systems and Internet-accessible systems. Many factors play a role in determining the vulnerability of information assets to security threats. Using a system dynamics approach, this study evaluates information security management strategies from a financial and asset loss perspective, with a view to providing managers guidance for information security decisions.
