2018 Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS), New Orleans, LA.

Track: Information Security and Privacy
Mini-track: Digital Crimes, Forensics, and Post-Incident Management


Dear Colleagues,


We are inviting submissions to the mini track titled “Digital Crimes,
Forensics, and Post-Incident Management” under the “Information Security
and Privacy” track in AMCIS 2018. As you have done related research, it
would be really great to have your paper included in our mini-track.
Quantitative, qualitative, and design science research are all welcome.
Please find the corresponding descriptions below.

*Track Description*

Cyber Security remains a key challenge for organizations despite massive
investments over the last two decades. While technological advancements
have been made to improve cyber defense, human vulnerabilities have become
the weakest link in security. High profile events such as defections,
espionage, and massive data breaches have led the public to question their
own expectations of privacy. While there is an abundance of practices and
techniques for employing cyber security, many hard problems remain
unanswered.

The purpose of this track is to provide a forum for theoretical
developments, empirical research findings, case studies, methodologies,
artifacts, and other high-quality manuscripts.  Sponsored by SIGSec, we
seek to address important questions arising from emerging developments in
information security, such as: security analytics, financial crimes,
security analytics, and digital forensics? How do system defenders share
information to mitigate vulnerabilities and exploits? Does pervasive data
collection deter privacy-conscious individuals? Do regulations and policies
influence employee security behaviors and organizational security postures?

*Mini-Track Description*

Many organizations experience security breaches (e.g., data breaches) and
each incident affects a victim organization with respect to its brand image
and customer loyalty. To respond to a security incident, organizations draw
on digital forensics techniques to determine cause, prosecute offenders,
and provide insight into the attack vectors deployed. Meanwhile,
organization leaders adopt management strategies to alleviate the adverse
impacts of an attack on affected employees or customers. This mini-track
seeks studies exploring how technical and managerial options can strengthen
an organization’s security posture and minimize the likely impacts of
security incidents. Examples topics include: (a) the impact of digital
forensics approaches, techniques, and/or tools on an organization’s defense
posture and residual risk, (b) digital forensic case studies, (c) forensic
data analytics and organizational performance, (d) security policies,
investment, and educational programs, (e) economic impacts of security
incidents on an organization, (f) affective and behavioural responses of
individual victims such as employees or customers, (g) risk communication
and compensation strategies on affected victims, and (h) other topics
related to organizational digital crimes and responses.


Completed Research and ERFs submissions are due by *February 28th 2018*.
