Information security risk management for ubiquitous computing

Information security risk management for ubiquitous computing

The potential for rapid and diverse interconnectivity between devices utilising heterogeneous communications interfaces has enabled a truly ubiquitous computing environment.  However this has resulted in equally ubiquitous security risks due principally to the number and complexity of services being run over such networks.  As technology advances towards the realisation of a ubiquitous computing environment, what impact does this have on the need to preserve the key information security requirements of: confidentiality, integrity and availability? And how does this influence, future information security solutions, particularly in light of “always-on” business processes which require real-time information sharing?  This thesis describes research conducted into answering these questions from a risk management perspective, using key industrial projects as case studies.

Abstract

The potential for rapid and diverse interconnectivity between devices utilising heterogeneous communications interfaces has enabled a truly ubiquitous computing environment.  However this has resulted in equally ubiquitous security risks due principally to the number and complexity of services being run over such networks.  As technology advances towards the realisation of a ubiquitous computing environment, what impact does this have on the need to preserve the key information security requirements of: confidentiality, integrity and availability? And how does this influence, future information security solutions, particularly in light of “always-on” business processes which require real-time information sharing?  This thesis describes research conducted into answering these questions from a risk management perspective, using key industrial projects as case studies.
