Research the topic of Information Security Management from quality sources and
write a short essay on the topic of:
The Need for Information Security Management
for Small to Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs)
The essay is written by each student individually. It is not part of the group’s work for the unit. The essay should not exceed 3000 words for internal students, excluding references. The essay should not exceed 5500 words for external students, excluding references.
Your essay should generally explore 2-3 topics among the ones listed below, focusing on the major relevant issues of the chosen topics. The essay should describe and discuss the introduction and implementation of information security regimes in small to medium enterprises (SMEs) against implementation in much larger organisations.
Topics among which students should choose for their essay:
Justifying the need for sound information security management in SMEs
Incident response management and disaster recovery
Mobile device security management
Linking business objectives with security
Biometric security devices and their use
Ethical issues in information security management
Security training and education
Governance issues in information security management
Personnel issues in information security
Physical security issues in information security
Cyber forensic incident response
You must produce a research essay based on the work of credible and relevant authors (not your gut-feeling about information security management). The essay should be fully referenced. The word limits mentioned above should not be exceeded, and marks may be deducted for essays exceeding the word limit. However, otherwise the essay is marked purely on content, so essays that simply try to make up the word limit but provide limited information will receive poor marks.
