Information security risk management: a holistic framework.
Werner Bornman · 2008
ii ability of ISRM methodologies to be adapted to organisational requirements. Developed scales allow for a qualitative comparison between different methodologies. The BFME forms the basis of the Bornman Framework for ISRM Information Communication (BFIC). This communication framework communicates the status of each ISRM component. This framework can be applied to any ISRM methodology after it has been evaluated by the BFME. The Bornman Risk Console (BRC) provides a practical implementation of the BFIC. The prototype utilises an existing ISRM methodology’s approach and provides decision-enabling risk information to top level management. By implementing the BRC and following the processes of the BFME and BFIC the differences in the approaches at each managerial level in different organisational structures are negated. These frameworks and prototype provide a holistic communication framework that can be implemented in any organisation.
