Evaluation of Information Security Investment Portfolios: A Probabilistic Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
As the impact of the information breaches to the information systems increases, organizations have a tendency not only to increase the information security budget but also to be sensitive to the information security expense. Organizations are faced with different types of security threats and they have several alternative technologies to mitigate the negative effects of the security threats. Most organizations implement a portfolio of the information security technologies. In this paper we suggest performance measures to evaluate information security systems, and evaluate information security investment portfolios.

A Trust Based Probabilistic Method for Efficient Correctness Verification in Database Outsourcing
Correctness verification of query results is a significant challenge in database outsourcing. Most of the proposed approaches impose high overhead, which makes them impractical in real scenarios. Probabilistic approaches are proposed in order to reduce the computation overhead pertaining to the verification process. In this paper, we use the notion of trust as the basis of our probabilistic app...
متن کاملExtension of Cube Attack with Probabilistic Equations and its Application on Cryptanalysis of KATAN Cipher
Cube Attack is a successful case of Algebraic Attack. Cube Attack consists of two phases, linear equation extraction and solving the extracted equation system. Due to the high complexity of equation extraction phase in finding linear equations, we can extract nonlinear ones that could be approximated to linear equations with high probability. The probabilistic equations could be considered as l...
متن کاملA modification of probabilistic hesitant fuzzy sets and its application to multiple criteria decision making
Probabilistic hesitant fuzzy set (PHFS) is a fruitful concept that adds to hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) the term of probability which is able to retain more information than the usual HFS. Here, we demonstrate that the existing definitions of PHFS are not still reasonable, and therefore, we first improve the PHFS definition. By endowing the set and algebraic operations with a new re-definition of P...
متن کاملOverreaction & Under reaction: Evaluating performance and Speed of Adjustment Investment Strategies in Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE)
In this research, overreaction and underreaction have been studied by assessing profitability and excess returns of investment strategies and evaluating price adjustment speed in short and long terms. The results showed that the momentum investment strategies had higher annual returns in comparison to contrarian strategies in all short and long periods which led to confirmation of underreaction...
متن کاملInvestigating Bhattacharya Hypothesis about the Effect of Dividend Signal on Information Asymmetry Risk: An Earnings Transparency Approach
Information asymmetry in stock market can increase the risk of investment which in turn increases the capital cost of firms. Bhattacharya (1979) proposed a hypothesis that states dividend can act as a powerful signal in order to solve information asymmetry problem. We measured information asymmetry by lack of earnings transparency. Therefore we examine the effect of earnings transparency on cap...
