Abstract

Top management is responsible for the wellbeing of the organization. Most organizations nowadays are dependent totally on the availability and effectiveness of their information service resources. For this reason it is imperative that top management gets involved and stays involved in the protection of the information service assets of the organization. This can only be accomplished through a process of continuous information security evaluation and reporting. An information security evaluation and reporting tool, representing the information security status in a concise, clear manner, will help a great deal in ensuring top management involvement. Suggests implementation of an information security management model by means of an evaluation tool. This tool will provide top management with information security status reporting in a clear, non‐technical format.
