Information security and privacy continue to be ranked in the top ten of CIO concerns (Luftman and Kempaiah, MISQ-e, 2008). Data breaches and identity theft are reported almost daily in the media. Firms struggle to find efficient and effective ways to prevent breaches while enabling e-commerce. Regulators increasingly warn against the encroachment of surveillance technologies on contemporary society. Issues of identity and meaning in social networks occupies large numbers of Facebook and Myspace “friends.” Transnational organisations seek ways to simultaneously manage risk while addressing the vagaries of multiple compliance regimes. These are just some of the complex issues with which privacy and security researchers concern themselves.
