Organizations in this digital era use automated Information Technology Systems to process their information in order to support their missions. Web Applications (WA) offer services for business processes that imply handling organization valuable information. Their requirements have become more complex so as to guarantee Information Security.Security Risk Assessment (SRA) plays a critical role in protecting an organization's information assets. The main query has to do with which is the best form to determine what needs to be protected. This research will be referencing Simon's Pattern, specifically the intelligence phase, which is used to: a) examine and monitor SRA reality in WA, and b) identify and define essential problems in vulnerabilities determination and their consequences. This study establishes the bases for constructing an authentic problem pattern and how it can be attacked.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
