Security Management

One objective of security management is preventing misuse (criminal & unethical) of information assets in your control. All organisations require information assets to function. If this flow is disrupted then the ability of the organisation to function is impaired; for example:

	Disruption of accounting systems

For some organisations the disclosure of information can be disastrous, particularly if the information is providing a commercial advantage.
