Information Assurance in Networked Enterprises: MICSS Class Experiments and Industry Survey Analysis

Abstract

Two surveys have been developed to ascertain the information assurance requirements of networked enterprises. The surveys give an insight into how inter-networked companies use their ERP systems, whet their current policies maybe with respect to information management, and what their security and assurance problems maybe. The surveys focus on the views of the information manager the firm and on the department managers of those departments that depend mostly on their information systems for smooth funning. The survey questions have been based on quantitative analysis done by experiments using an ERP software simulator, MICSS (Management Interactive Case Study Simulator). The logic and procedures used to develop the surveys has been presented. The results obtained from the analysis of the survey replies will enable the design of autonomous agent a and active protocols to help companies automatically assure their information.
