    Trends in information system security in universities
    (International Journal of Innovative Research and Advanced Studies, 2017) Otanga, Daniel; Mbuguah, Samuel Mungai
    Information system security is designed for critical information protection. Security in Information systems is a complex of organizational technical and legal measures that are used to protect information from unauthorized modification and unauthorized access. Due to dynamic changes in Information Technology (IT), new threats and vulnerability emerge and thus the need to consider appropriate approaches that can address the emerging security issues. This paper examines the trends in information system security in universities and seeks to explore the current security approaches in universities with a view of establishing effective security approaches. Through scrutiny of literature on trends in information system security, the paper presents the findings of the security approaches trends identified. The paper also attempts to forecast the future trends in information system security in universities and its implications to the level of information security requirements in the universities. Information security must be checked continuously to maintain the required security level in universities.
