PROPOSITION OF A DYNAMIC MODEL FOR MANAGING SECURITY INFORMATION ON INDUSTRIAL ENVIRONMENTS

Abstract

The security information exchanged in industrial environment is a key factor for the success of modern organizations, because it refers to characteristics of the product and its manufacturing process. Such information is very sensitive and cannot be disclosed to competitors, under penalty of incurrence in competitiveness loss. The ongoing computerization brings benefits to the industry as it increases cooperation between people, but it also increases the vulnerability of information security. As a consequence, information security management models also need to change. This paper presents a bibliographic review about security issues concerning information management and proposes a dynamic management model in which people interaction, cooperation and motivation (senior management, sector managers and employees) are prioritized to achieve the new information security management requirements: responsibility, trust and ethics.
