Book The Art of Balancing Information Security and Information Sharing

Download or read book The Art of Balancing Information Security and Information Sharing written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Balancing the needs of information sharing against threats to security is an age-old dilemma; operational security (OP SEC) often conflicts with operational effectiveness; protecting intelligence sources and methods may undermine confidence in the product; and guarding trade secrets and customer privacy may prevent the introduction of e-commerce innovations. But in today's global, high-tech, information-oriented environment, with exploding demands for both information sharing and information security, the importance of getting a better balance between information sharing and security is becoming critical to survival. When is an information environment so open that openness jeopardizes vital interests? How much ought security impede effectiveness? How are these crucial but often conflicting requirements to be weighed? Who are the stakeholders, and what are the stakes? What are the trade-offs? Where does technology fit in? Where is each organization's balance between information sharing and information security? These are all crucial questions that are often left unanswered or incomplete in many of organizational approaches to IS & S. However, the focus of the framework presented here is not on specifically answering these questions, but rather, on how organizations can better ask and address them.

This book was released on 2011-11-06 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privacy and data protection in police work and law enforcement cooperation has always been a challenging issue. Current developments in EU internal security policy, such as increased information sharing (which includes the exchange of personal data between European law enforcement agencies and judicial actors in the area of freedom, security and justice (Europol, Eurojust, Frontex and OLAF)) and the access of EU agencies, in particular Europol and Eurojust, to data stored in European information systems such as the SIS (II), VIS, CIS or Eurodac raise interesting questions regarding the balance between the rights of individuals and security interests. This book deals with the complexity of the relations between these actors and offers for the first time a comprehensive overview of the structures for information exchange in the area of freedom, security and justice and their compliance with data protection rules in this field.

This book provides a unique angle on the topic of national cyber threat intelligence and security information sharing. It also provides a clear view on ongoing works in research laboratories world-wide in order to address current security concerns at national level. It allows practitioners to learn about upcoming trends, researchers to share current results, and decision makers to prepare for future developments.

Book Information Privacy in the Evolving Healthcare Environment  2nd Edition

Download or read book Information Privacy in the Evolving Healthcare Environment 2nd Edition written by Linda Koontz and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in health information technology (health IT) have the potential to improve the quality of healthcare, to increase the availability of health information for treatment, and to implement safeguards that cannot be applied easily or cost-effectively to paper-based health records. However, the digitization of health information is also raising new privacy risks and concerns. Sensitive health information in digital form is more easily aggregated, used, and shared. In addition, the rising cost of healthcare and the search for efficiency may create incentives to use the information in new ways. Research has consistently shown that while the public sees the potential value of health information exchange and technological advancements, it remains gravely concerned about the privacy of their sensitive health information. As a result, it is becoming increasingly clear that ensuring public trust will be critical to the successful implementation of nationwide health information exchange. The purpose of this second edition is two-fold: 1) to educate readers about privacy concepts and 2) highlight key privacy issues facing the nation and the healthcare community as it moves towards electronic health records and health information exchange. The first three chapters are descriptive in nature, defining privacy and distinguishing it from security, defining the complex legal landscape for health information privacy, and setting the stage for the following chapters by describing the current landscape of the evolving healthcare environment. The following chapters discuss specific privacy issues and challenges in detail. The book concludes with a chapter providing a view to the future of healthcare and the association privacy implications. This is an updated version of one of HIMSS’ best-selling books on information privacy.
