Abstract

This manuscript explores the gap between organizational processes and security design. We begin with a presentation stressing the need for improved security in the corporation. Organizational processes, such as work design, creativity and innovation, culture, learning and change are considered in organizational design. The way the organization is designed and coordinated determines its ability to achieve its goals. Many factors influence the behavior and performance of the organization including the context, purpose, people, and structure as they interface with the core transformation and management support processes to set up the organization’s performance level. All factors are affected by security.
