Abstract

This study assists organizations and researchers in examining investments in IS security. A questionnaire was developed and administered to managers in Canadian financial firms and educational organizations. The survey examined security threats and the countermeasures adopted by organizations to prevent and respond to security breaches. Data gathered were used to investigate the relationships between investment in security, perceived security, and organizational performance.
