*MISQE and SIM Academic Workshop*
In Preparation for the December 2024 MISQE Special Issue on
*MANAGING CYBERSECURITY TO ADDRESS INCREASING DIGITAL RISK*
Sponsored by: The Society for Information Management and *MIS Quarterly Executive*
*Location:* ICIS 2023 pre-conference Workshop in Hyderabad, India
*Date:* Saturday, December 9, 2023
*OVERVIEW*
The digital transformation of organizations continues to intensify bringing great benefits. However, accompanying the proliferation of technology in organizations has been a surge in cybersecurity and other forms of digital risk. Novel research is needed to further identify these risks and illuminate how these risks can be mitigated.
This MISQE Special Issue seeks to publish practice-based research on the management of cybersecurity and other digital risks that will be translatable to organizational efforts. We encourage academic researchers, IT industry security leaders, and collaborations between academic leaders and practice-based leaders to address the challenges of Digital Risk, Cybersecurity, and Information Privacy.
Authors should submit abstracts of research papers to the workshop to gain feedback and suggestions prior to a full paper submission to MISQE. *(Note: If you anticipate that travel to India may be a problem for you, we might make alternative arrangements – just let us know.) *Practitioner abstracts and joint academic/practitioner abstracts are welcome. Examples of possible research topics are presented in the following section, though other topics can also be considered.
