Perspectives on Cybersecurity Information Sharing among Multiple Stakeholders Using a Decision‐Theoretic Approach

The government, private sectors, and others users of the Internet are increasingly faced with the risk of cyber incidents. Damage to computer systems and theft of sensitive data caused by cyber attacks have the potential to result in lasting harm to entities under attack, or to society as a whole. The effects of cyber attacks are not always obvious, and detecting them is not a simple proposition. As the U.S. federal government believes that information sharing on cybersecurity issues among organizations is essential to safety, security, and resilience, the importance of trusted information exchange has been emphasized to support public and private decision making by encouraging the creation of the Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC). Through a decision‐theoretic approach, this article provides new perspectives on ISAC, and the advent of the new Information Sharing and Analysis Organizations (ISAOs), which are intended to provide similar benefits to organizations that cannot fit easily into the ISAC structure. To help understand the processes of information sharing against cyber threats, this article illustrates 15 representative information sharing structures between ISAC, government, and other participating entities, and provide discussions on the strategic interactions between different stakeholders. This article also identifies the costs of information sharing and information security borne by different parties in this public‐private partnership both before and after cyber attacks, as well as the two main benefits. This article provides perspectives on the mechanism of information sharing and some detailed cost–benefit analysis.     

A Capture-Recapture Problem When Information is Obtained From Two Qualitatively Different Sources

We first consider a wildlife-related capture recapture problem with a known total number of fish. Our objective is to estimate the number of healthy fish, H. We first use a rod that only attracts healthy fish, which are tagged and returned to the water. Later, we use a net that scoops both sick and healthy fish. Three assumptions regarding the probability of being caught by the net, conditional on health status and being caught by the rod, lead to three different estimates of H. We give approximations to expected values of the three estimates and give a condition under which they bracket H.

A potential application of these methods is to the follow-up of World Trade Center responders. Responders are disease-free when they arrive at the clean-up site and are asked to report for a visit after a fixed period of time, but some fail to do so. Some responders, whether they come to the scheduled return visit or not, spontaneously report a disease before the scheduled visit, but absence of disease is never reported in this manner. We use the methods developed to estimate the total number of subjects with disease by the time of the scheduled return visit.

A validity scale for the Sharp consumer satisfaction scales.

Because of the apparently inflated scores commonly reported for consumer satisfaction with mental health services, we developed a 5-item validity scale for the SHARP questionnaire. The scale discriminated significantly (P less than .001) between those former clients who offered suggestions for improvement of services and those who did not (N = 38). In another experiment, the scale significantly improved the ability to predict the 46 clients' true scores from their obtained scores via stepwise regression (p less than .01). Weights were obtained from that sample of former clients, which significantly reduced the deviation of the obtained satisfaction scores from the true scores, with all p less than .05. In two successive experiments (N = 49 and 26), weights were applied to new samples, significantly reducing deviation from the criterion scores for 5 of the 6 scales (p less than .05), and new weights were then derived. A final set of weights was derived from the combined samples of the three experiments, (N = 121) which significantly improved prediction of the criterion and lowered the mean on all scales, with all p less than .05.     

Empirically Testing the Relationship Between End-User Computing Problems and Information Center Success Factors

End-user computing (EUC) has been a significant organizational phenomenon for more than two decades and remains critically important with the rapid introduction of new technologies (e.g., client-server architectures, internet and intranet applications). Although EUC is a mature concept, it is apparent that end users do not become independent over time, but instead require additional resources and support. One widely employed support mechanism is the Information Center (IC). This study surveyed the internal auditor and the information systems (IS) director in each of 185 organizations. The internal auditors provided responses on the severity of EUC problems in their organizations, and the IS directors supplied information on their firms' performance on the IC critical success factors (CSFs) proposed by Magal, Carr, and Watson (1988). Results show that stronger IC performance is indeed inversely related to the severity of EUC problems encountered by the organization. Specifically, the study's findings show that to have the greatest impact on EUC problems, IC managers should concentrate on clearly defining the IC's mission; establish standards and controls; monitor, coordinate, and help users prioritize applications development; and be responsive to user requests.

An Overview of a Hospital-Based Child Advocacy Center’s Experience from Turkey

The purpose of the present study was to investigate sociodemographic variables, features of sexual abuse (SA), and first psychiatric evaluation results of abused children, and to analyze the relation of the psychiatric evaluation results to the children’s age and gender, type and duration of abuse, abuser–child relationship, and marital status of the children’s parents, at one of the most experienced Child Advocacy Centers (CACs) in Turkey. All data were obtained from reports prepared by child and adolescent psychiatrists. The sample of this study consists of 436 child sexual abuse (CSA) cases who admitted ?zmir CAC between April 2014 and November 2015. The statistical analyses yielded significant relations between psychiatric symptoms and chronic abuse, the gender of the children, and type of abuse. Suicidal ideation and behaviors due to sexual abuse (SA) were also examined. According to our results, it is fair to say that children exposed to SA benefit from immediate psychiatric help because of their vulnerability for psychiatric disorders due to abuse. In this context, CACs are very important multidisciplinary establishments to determine children’s multiple needs to ease their trauma with collaborative teamwork. Psychiatric evaluation should be part of this multidisciplinary context.
