Computer Security, Importance and Scope in Organizations

Abstract

The globalization of the economy has required companies to implement technology platforms that support the new way of doing business. The use of the Internet for this purpose leads to the development of computer security projects that guarantee the integrity, availability and accessibility of information. The creation of security policies is a fundamental task that involves the company's people, processes and resources. Information security allows organizations to protect their financial resources, information systems, reputation, legal status and other tangible and intangible assets. The main objective of this work is to develop a simulation model that allows evaluating the optimal level of security that society and organizations should have considering aspects related to risk reduction and obtaining business benefits.
