ARTICLE 1
Towards a Business-Driven Process Model for Knowledge Security Risk
Management: Making Sense of Knowledge Risks
Ilona Ilvonen (Tampere University of Technology, Tampere, Finland), Jari J
Jussila (Tampere University of Technology, Tampere, Finland), Hannu
Kärkkäinen (Department of Information Management and Logistics, Tampere
University of Technology, Tampere, Finland)
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a model to manage knowledge
security risks in organizations. Knowledge security risk management is a
sensemaking process that should be carried out by managers, and the proposed
model works as a tool for the sensemaking process. The model is illustrated
with an analytical case example. The process model helps to identify knowledge
security risks and provides a comprehensive approach to evaluating and
balancing the costs and benefits of knowledge sharing and knowledge risk
management. The paper addresses calls for research on the emerging topic of
knowledge security and the important topic of new knowledge sharing tools from
the combined perspectives of business benefits and risk management. The
results presented in this paper are preliminary and conceptual, and further
research on the topic is suggested. The process model proposed in this paper
can be a valuable tool for practitioners aiming to develop knowledge
sharing practices in companies, and at the same time need to consider the
security of knowledge.

ARTICLE 2
Knowledge Risks of Social Media in the Financial Industry
Christina Sarigianni (School of Management, University of Innsbruck,
Innsbruck, Austria), Stefan Thalmann (School of Management, University of
Innsbruck, Innsbruck, Austria), Markus Manhart (School of Management, University
of Innsbruck, Innsbruck, Austria)
The financial sector is characterized as knowledge intensive with
knowledge as the key source of competitive advantage. The introduction of social
media within the organizational environment has raised the number of
knowledge risks that can lead to knowledge leakage and thus to a loss of
competitive edge. The authors investigated knowledge risks arising from the use of
social media within the financial sector. They interviewed twelve employees
from ten different European financial institutions to identify strategies
how financial institutions currently deal with knowledge risks. The authors
identified three major knowledge risks induced by social media and it
appears that financial institutions are skeptical towards social media adoption.
However, competition forces financial institutions to adopt social media
and to change their attitude. As a consequence, financial institutions need
to find different strategies for the management of knowledge risks. The
authors identified such strategies and they show which strategies link to the
major knowledge risks.

ARTICLE 3
Ownership of Collaborative Works in the Cloud
Marilyn Phelps (San Diego State University, San Diego, CA, USA), Murray E.
Jennex (College of Business Administration, San Diego State University,
San Diego, CA, USA)
Increased usage of cloud storage and other networking technologies in
knowledge management (KM) systems leave companies vulnerable to loss of
proprietary rights as intellectual property law struggles to keep up with these
advances. This paper reviews the current legal environment surrounding cloud
and collaborative KM, discusses the implications for KM, and makes
recommendations for how gaps between legal protection for intellectual property and
KM can be overcome/corrected. Additionally, the paper explores how aware
KM personnel are of this risk and proposes a further study using the who
owns it game.

Knowledge Transfer in Information Security Capacity Building for
Community-Based Organizations
Janine L. Spears (DePaul University, Chicago, IL, USA), Tonia San
Nicolas-Rocca (School of Information, San Jose State University, San Jose, CA,
USA)
Community-based organizations (CBOs) in the health and human services
sector handle very sensitive client information, such as psychiatric, HIV
testing, criminal justice, and financial records. With annual revenue often in
the range of $1 to $10 million, these organizations typically lack the
financial, labor, and technical resources to identify and manage information
security risks within their environment. Therefore, information security risk
assessments were conducted at CBOs as part of a university service learning
course intended to ultimately improve security within participating CBOs.
Knowledge transfer between trainees and trainers is essential in order for
security improvements to be realized. Therefore, this paper constructs a
theoretical model of knowledge transfer that is used as a lens through which
to examine initial study results of the CBO interventions as part of an
exploratory study.
