New Frontiers in Security Risk Management

Abstract:

Information and communication technologies are fomenting a highly connected and modern society. This modernization is making innumerable improvements to our daily lives (e.g., transport, health, communications, business, efficiency, entertainment, and so on). However, it is also creating a complex and interconnected ecosystem of security risks that threatens our privacy, honor, information, and other material resources. It can, therefore, clearly be seen that traditional information security risk analysis methods (ISRAMs) are an insufficient means to protect citizens. Nevertheless, the emergence or evolution of advanced technologies (e.g., quantum computing, machine learning, semantic models, swarm intelligence, or even blockchain) may push ISRAMs toward a new technological dimension that seeks a more connected and integrated awareness of security risks. In this article, we present a vision of how these advanced technologies can be integrated to reduce risks in our daily lives and help us to make decisions regarding security risks.
