This unit introduces the concepts of risk to e-business and e-commerce systems and the associated security measures needed to ameliorate them. Students will examine the threats to these systems and counter-measures against them. This will be studied from a management and organisational perspective with the view to implementing effective strategies and procedures to defend systems.
