An action is utilitarian when it is both useful and practical. In this paper we examine a number of traditional information security management practices in order to ascertain their utility. That analysis is performed according to the particular set of challenges and requirements experienced by very large organizations. Examples of such organizations include multinational corporations, the governments of large nations, and global investment banks. We identify a number of information security management practices that are considered to be "best practice" in the general case but that are suboptimal at the margin represented by very large organizations. A number of alternative management practices are proposed that compensate for the identified weaknesses.

“…The three key pillars of information security demand that the "confidentiality, integrity and availability" of information must at all times be protected (Whitman & Mattord, 2005). The importance of security as a key measure of the quality of data is evidenced by the fact that businesses require information that is "reliable, of high integrity and that guards privacy" (Schweitzer, 1987). Security in the data breach area would thus measure the extent to which data on public websites is protected from hacking and from modification or deletion by non-authorized personnel.…”

As the nation confronts a growing tide of security breaches, the importance of having quality data breach information systems becomes paramount. Yet too little attention is paid to evaluating these systems. This article draws on data quality scholarship to develop a yardstick that assesses the quality of data breach notification systems in the U.S. at both the state and national levels from the perspective of key stakeholders, who include law enforcement agencies, consumers, shareholders, investors, researchers, and businesses that sell security products. Findings reveal major shortcomings that reduce the value of data breach information to these stakeholders. The study concludes with detailed recommendations for reform.
