Abstract
Computer-based information systems provide countless opportunities to improve an
organization's functioning and enhance its products or services. They also expose
organizations to significant risks as they become increasingly dependent on information
resources. To minimize the risks to an organization's information systems, an
Information System (IS) security plan must be formulated. A Decision Support System
(DSS) can provide managers with consistent and concise guidance for the development
and analysis of an IS security plan. SPAN, a Decision Support System for Security Plan
Analysis has been developed to provide IS managers with information necessary to make
informed IS security plan decisions. This thesis will address how SPAN can be applied
for security plan analysis resulting in better and more informed security plan decisions.
