Abstract

The information society is increasingly more dependent upon Information Security Management Systems (ISMSs), and the availability of these systems has become crucial to the evolution of Small and Medium-size Enterprises (SMEs). However, this type of companies requires ISMSs which have been adapted to their specific characteristics. In this paper we show the strategy that we have designed for the management and reuse of security information in the information system security management process. This strategy is set within the framework of a methodology that we have designed for the integral management of information system security and maturity, denominated as "Methodology for Security Management and Maturity in Small and Mediumsized Enterprises (MSM2-SME)". This model is currently being applied in real cases, and is thus constantly improving.
