Integrating IS Security with Knowledge Management: Are We Doing Enough?
Murray Jennex (San Diego State University, San Diego, CA, USA), Alexandra
Durcikova (University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK, USA)
Knowledge management focuses on capturing and sharing knowledge. Because
of this, KM researchers tend to focus on issues related to knowledge
capture, storage, and sharing. However, because knowledge is valuable, it is a
target needing to be protected. This paper posits that KM researchers and
practitioners also need to think about security and explores how important
security skills are to KM practitioners and researchers. A literature review
was performed to determine how much attention is paid by KM researchers to
knowledge security. Additionally, 50 KM job postings were examined from the
spring of 2013 to determine if security skills are considered important by
those hiring KM practitioners. Additionally, 38 job postings were examined
from the summer of 2014 to determine if required skills changed based on the
Target breech. Finally, a survey was prepared for exploring security
attitudes of KM practitioners as an area of future research.

ARTICLE 2
Genre-Based Approach to Assessing Information and Knowledge Security
Risks

(Luleå University of Technology, Luleå, Sweden)
Contemporary methods for assessing information security risks have adopted
mainly technical views on information and technology assets.
Organizational dynamics of information management and knowledge sharing have gained less
attention. This article outlines a new, genre-based, approach to
information security risk assessment in order to orientate toward organization- and
knowledge-centric identification and analysis of security risks. In order
to operationalize the genre-based approach, we suggest the use of a
genre-based analytical method for identifying organizational communication patterns
through which organizational knowledge is shared. The genre-based method
is then complemented with tasks and techniques from a textbook risk
assessment method (OCTAVE Allegro). We discuss the initial experiences of three
experienced information security professionals who tested the method. The
article concludes with implications of the genre-based approach to analyzing
information and knowledge security risks for future research and practice.

ARTICLE 3
An Integrated Risk Management Framework: Measuring the Success of
Organizational Knowledge Protection
Stefan Thalmann (School of Management, University of Innsbruck, Innsbruck,
Austria), Markus Manhart (School of Management, University of Innsbruck,
Innsbruck, Austria), Paolo Ceravolo (Computer Science Department, Università
degli Studi di Milano, Milan, Italy), Antonia Azzini (Computer Science
Department, Università degli Studi di Milano, Milan, Italy)
Organizational risk management should not only rely on protecting data and
information but also on protecting knowledge which is underdeveloped in
many cases or measures are applied in an uncoordinated, dispersed way.
Therefore, we propose a consistent top-down translation from the organizational
risk management goals to implemented controls to overcome these
shortcomings. Our approach adopted from the domain of IT security management allows to
measure how well knowledge protection is actually pursued in organizations.
This affects organizations' abilities to prove compliance to risk
management standards, laws, guidelines, or frameworks and creates transparency
throughout the whole knowledge protection processes. After introducing our
integrated risk management framework, we demonstrate how the technical part of
the framework can be implemented by using process mining in a case study of
an Italian aerospace company.

ARTICLE 4
Knowledge Management in Support of Enterprise Risk Management
Eduardo Rodriguez (Telfer School of Management, University of Ottawa,
Ottawa, Canada and IQAnalytics Inc., Ottawa, Canada), John S. Edwards (Aston
Business School, Birmingham, West Midlands, UK)
Risk management and knowledge management have so far been studied almost
independently. The evolution of risk management to the holistic view of
Enterprise Risk Management requires the destruction of barriers between
organizational silos and the exchange and application of knowledge from different
risk management areas. However, knowledge management has received little
or no attention in risk management. This paper examines possible
relationships between knowledge management constructs related to knowledge sharing,
and two risk management concepts: perceived quality of risk control and
perceived value of enterprise risk management. From a literature review,
relationships with eight knowledge management variables covering people, process
and technology aspects were hypothesised. A survey was administered to risk
management employees in financial institutions. The results showed that the
perceived quality of risk control is significantly associated with four
knowledge management variables: perceived quality of risk knowledge sharing,
perceived quality of communication among people, web channel functionality,
and risk management information system functionality. However, the
relationships of the knowledge management variables to the perceived value of
enterprise risk management are not significant. We conclude that better
knowledge management is associated with better risk control, but that more effort
needs to be made to break down organizational silos in order to support true
Enterprise Risk Management.

ARTICLE 5
Exploring the Effect of Knowledge Transfer Practices on User Compliance to
IS Security Practices
Tonia San Nicolas-Rocca (San Jose State University, San Jose, CA, USA),
Benjamin Schooley (University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC, USA), Janine
L. Spears (DePaul University, Chicago, IL, USA)
Institutions of higher education capture, store and disseminate
information that is protected by state and federal regulations. As a result, IS
security policies are developed and implemented to ensure end user compliance.
This case study investigates end user knowledge of their university's IS
security policy and proposes a new approach to improve end user compliance.
The results of this study suggest that users may be contributors to the
transfer of IS security policies when provided with an opportunity to
participate in the development of an IS security awareness and training program.
