The need for information systems is increasing more and more. This need has reached such an extent that their absence is hardly imaginable. In this information age, we, someway or another, have to use an electronic device or system in order to maintain our lives.
That’s why, it is of almost importance that processes on/through electronic devices are carried out under safe and secure conditions. In this sense, security and integrity of the information processed are of topmost importance.Additionally, one has to be sure about the source and reliability of such information. Another important issue is the necessity of information systems that have to present secure and innovative solutions maintaining business continuity and enhancing institutional performance.
Preservation and transfer of the military and civilian information under secure conditions are important not only for countries but also for institutions. To maintain this security, some countries reserve big budgets while others are unaware of their security needs. It is only when the institutional information solutions are viewed and designed as a whole that will provide the expected goals. That’s why, we have adopted a holistic approach in developing our solutions instead of focusing only on the features of new technology or devices. Among our priorities in this direction are human factors, institutions’ habits and the usability of new technology and devices, which all have huge infl uence in all processes.
The right approach in this regard includes correct analysis of the service and security (that are the expected results of information systems and solutions) and also deciding on the system architecture with a comprehensive risk analysis.
