Abstract

This paper examines prior research on the topic of information security analysis in the context of e-Government. Specifically, risk management concept models and analysis techniques are reviewed and their application in e-Government is covered. In addition, this paper will review criminological threat assessment techniques and relate them to risk management methodologies, discussing similarities and differences. This paper offers the conclusion that the fields of information security risk management and criminological threat assessment techniques have a number of similarities and differences and the methodologies should be examined together more closely in future research for the benefit of both fields.
