[SPARTA - bodies.dissemination-committee] Paper to RCIS submitted

Dear all, We have submitted a paper on “Method for Evaluating Organisations’ Information Security Level” to the 16th International Conference on Research Challenges in Information Science (RCIS 2022). If accepted, we will acknowledge SPARTA. Authors: Mari Seeba, Sten Mases and Raimundas Matulevicius Abstract: This paper introduces a method for evaluating information security levels of organisations using a benchmarking tool. The framework supporting the tool is based on Estonian Information Security Standard (which in turn is adapted from German Federal Office of Information Security BSI IT-Grundschutz) categories and compatible with ISO 27001 Information Security Management System standard. The tool covers both technical and organisational aspects of information security. Using the publicly available tool takes around 60 minutes and gives quick feedback about the information security level of the organisation. The results can be used to give an overview of security to the organisation’s management, compare different organisations across the region, and support strategic decision-making on a national level. Best greetings, Mari and Raimundas
