Abstract

When introducing E-Business Knowledge Management (EBKM) systems into organisations, management should carefully assess the risks and threats to these systems to ensure that they are well-secured and controllable and do not leave the organisation exposed to unwanted litigation or adverse publicity. This paper addresses this concern by raising IT governance risk issues and suggesting security and control features that may be put in place to protect both the EBKM systems and the organisation. The paper also addresses research in progress in this area, namely, to gather details of risks and controls via a survey and to undertake a case study of an organisation with a mature EBKM strategy which has considered the risks, security and controls for KM.
