Abstract

Information systems are the backbone of almost every business. The rise in the usage and the development of information networks over the years has added to the magnitude and frequent occurrences of threats to these very systems. Therefore, researchers and developers need to fill the gaps between early knowledge about risks and current level of risks and threats posed to information systems. The paper, done qualitatively, explores the various effects on the architecture of the information systems when the systems are exposed to attacks. The conceptual results, presented in the paper explore the relation of security risks to the architectural components of information systems. The findings can help the developer community to design architecturally sound and secure information systems.
