In this case study, a collaborative risk method for information security management has been analyzed considering the common problems encountered during the implementation of ISO standards in eight Turkish public organizations. This proposed risk method has been applied within different public organizations and it has been demonstrated to be effective and problem-free. The fundamental issue is that there is no legislation that regulates the information security liabilities of the public organizations in Turkey. The findings and lessons learned presented in this case provide useful insights for practitioners when implementing information security management projects in other international public sector organizations.

A Decision Support System for Optimal Selection of Enterprise Information Security Preventative Actions Sonmez, Ferda Ozdemir; Günel Kılıç, Banu (2021-09-01) Types and complexity of information security related vulnerabilities are growing rapidly and present numerous challenges to the enterprises. One of the key challenges is to identify the optimal set of precautions with limited budget. Despite the fact that majority of enterprises have a budget constraint for installing and maintaining the protection systems, the majority of the previous work only focus on prioritization of security targets and do not consider the preventative actions and budget constraints. ...
A Collaborative Process Based Risk Analysis for Information Security Management Systems Karabacak, Bilge; Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi (2010-04-09) Today, many organizations quote intent for ISO/IEC 27001:2005 certification. Also, some organizations are en route to certification or already certified. Certification process requires performing a risk analysis in the specified scope. Risk analysis is a challenging process especially when the topic is information security. Today, a number of methods and tools are available for information security risk analysis. The hard task is to use the best fit for the certification. In this work we have proposed a pro...
On provable security of some public key encryption schemes Hanoymak, Turgut; Akyıldız, Ersan; Selçuk, Ali Aydın; Department of Cryptography (2012) In this thesis, we analyse the security criteria of some public key encryption schemes. In this respect, we present the notion of adversarial goals and adversarial capabilities. We give the definition of provably security by means of several games between the challenger and the adversary in some security models, namely the standard model and the random oracle model. We state the main differences between these two models and observe the advantage of the success probability of the adversary in breaking the cr...
Semantic interoperability of the un/cefact ccts based electronic business document standards Kabak, Yıldıray; Doğaç, Asuman; Department of Computer Engineering (2009) The interoperability of the electronic documents exchanged in eBusiness applications is an important problem in industry. Currently, this problem is handled by the mapping experts who understand the meaning of every element in the involved document schemas and define the mappings among them which is a very costly and tedious process. In order to improve electronic document interoperability, the UN/CEFACT produced the Core Components Technical Specification (CCTS) which defines a common structure and semanti...
A Conceptual Model for a Metric Based Framework for the Monitoring of Information Security Tasks’ Efficiency Sönmez, Ferda Özdemir (Elsevier BV; 2019) Information Security Governance Systems are not adequate to measure the effectiveness and efficiency of security tasks for the enterprises. Although some of the systems offer ways for measurement, they still need the definition of measurement objectives and metrics. This study proposes a conceptual framework mode which has human and tool/process related metrics. This system also allows the collection of evidence data for security-related tasks and ways to motivate the security staff to provide a more produc...
