Sažetak
Information security importance is growing as the integration of IT gadgets continues into more and more aspects of modern life. In addition, breaches of information security appear to be increasing in frequency: the possibility that the severity of future attacks could be much greater than what has been observed to date, is a fact. A central issue is whether we are devoting enough resources to information security and the part of the answer is found in the socio-economic analysis. This paper summarizes the limited empirical data on security breaches costs, and surveys recent theoretical models that seeks to overcome the absence of reliable and comprehensive statistics.
