Abstract :
As organizations suffer through a declining economy, many will be forced to make security cutbacks they wouldn´t ordinarily consider to be acceptable. IT leaders and managers making security cuts must ensure that their cyberdefense continues to meet organizational obligations to protect enterprise cyberspace and corporate assets. This special issue looks at the various trade-offs involved.
