Michael Lapke, Gurpreet S. Dhillon · Journal of the Association for Information Systems · 2006
This study is aimed at understanding how multiple perspectives of stakeholders are incorporated in the formulation of security policy.The research was guided by the Theory of Semantics.A framework was created from established semantic theory.Guided by the framework, a case study was carried out at a large state University.The point of the case study was to provide insight into security policy formulation.This insight may guide researchers in developing principles for effective security policy design.The development and implementation of this framework of semantic analysis is the major contribution of this paper.This framework could also help future researchers pursue semantic research.
