“…Besides risk management process, business continuity management (BCM) also contributes to the success of ISM [8], [22]. The goal of BCM is to ensure the continuity of organisation's business operations during or after adverse situations [27], [28], [29], [30]. BCM requires a comprehensive business continuity plan which is derived from business impact analysis and risk assessment [5].…”

Information security management (ISM) is a continuous, structured and systematic security approach to managing and protect the organisation's information from being compromised by irresponsible parties. To ensure the information remains secure, many organisations have implemented ISM by establishing and reviewing information security (IS) policy, processes, procedures, and organisational structures. Regardless of the efforts, security threats, incidents, vulnerabilities, and risks are still plaguing many organisations. Lack of awareness of ISM effectiveness due to low understanding of the success factors is one of the major factors that cause this phenomenon. This study aimed to address this subject by firstly identifying the ISM key factors from existing literature and then by confirming the factors and discovering other related factors from practitioners' perspective. This study used a qualitative method where it adopted semi-structured interviews involving nine practitioners. The data were analysed using content analysis technique. Through the analysis, the study validated several ISM factors and their elements that contribute to the success of ISM. The findings provide practitioners with the high understanding of ISM key factors and could guide practitioners in implementing proper ISM.

“…Business continuity management (BCM) is another vital process in ISM [29]. It is a holistic management process to ensure the continuity of critical processes whenever disasters or unintended events happen [30], [31]. BCM requires a business continuity plan (BCP) that highlights the resources, activities, and responsibilities for managing the unintended events.…”

Information Security Management (ISM) concerns shielding the integrity, confidentiality, availability, authenticity, reliability and accountability of the organisation's information from unauthorised access in order to ensure business continuity and customers' confidence. The importance of information security (IS) in today's situation should be given due attention. Recognising its importance, organisations nowadays have devoted wide efforts in protecting their information. They establish information security policy, processes, and procedures as well as reengineer their organisational structures to align with ISM principles. Regardless of the efforts, security incidents continue to occur in many organisations. This phenomenon shows that the current implementation of ISM is still ineffective due to unaware of the factors contributing to the success of ISM. Thus, the objective of this paper is to identify ISM success factors and their elements through a large-scale survey. The survey involves 243 practitioners from statutory bodies, public and private organisations in Malaysia. The results of the survey indicate that top management, IS coordinator team, ISM team, IS audit team, employees, third parties, IS policy, IS procedures, resource planning, competency development and awareness, risk management, business continuity management, IS audit and IT infrastructure are the factors that contribute to the success of ISM implementation. These factors shall guide practitioners in planning and refining ISM implementation in their organisations.

Public Natural Resource Management (NRM) agencies operate in complex social-ecological domains. These complexities proliferate unpredictably therefore investigating and supporting the ability of public agencies to respond effectively is increasingly important. However, understanding how public NRM agencies innovate and restructure to negotiate the range of particular complexities they face is an under researched field. One particular conceptualisation of the social-ecological complexities facing NRM agencies that is of growing influence is the Water-Energy-Food (WEF) nexus. Yet, as a tool to frame and understand those complexities it has limitations. Specifically, it overlooks how NRMs respond institutionally to these social-ecological complexities in the context of economic and organisational challengesthus creating a gap in the literature. Current debates in public administration can be brought to bear here. Using an organisational cultures approach, this paper reports on a case study with a national NRM agency to investigate how they are attempting to transform institutionally to respond to complexity in challenging times. The research involved 12 elite interviews with senior leaders from Natural Resources Wales, (NRW) and investigated how cultural narratives are being explicitly and implicitly constructed and mobilised to this end. The research identified four distinct and sequential cultural narratives: collaboration, communication, trust, and empowerment where each narrative supported the delivery of different dimensions of NRW's social-ecological complexity mandate. Counter to the current managerialist approaches in public administration, these results suggest that the empowerment of expert bureaucrats is important in responding effectively to complexity.
