Abstract :
The research report focuses on the issue of critical factors in relation to the implementation of information security (InfoSec). Several authors have proposed ways of implementing critical factors of InfoSec, suggesting particular methodologies to achieve them. In this paper the researchers summarise the advice of different authors and identify critical factors in the InfoSec implementation. This leads us to an analysis of the generic factors of InfoSec implementation. The resulting critical factors model provides a framework for the analysis of actual organisational practices.
