Research on Security Critical Success Factors

[Tim Lane <tlane () SCU EDU AU>]

Hello All,

I am researching information security management at Universities and
wondered if anyone knows of any previous specific research that has
identified "critical success factors (CSF's) for information security
management".

I am aware of the CSF's for security specified in COBIT, have found an
empirical study from sweden that identified critical success factors for an
information security management system, and am aware of the new CSF method
published through Carnegie Mellon University.

Despite a lot of other searching I can't find anything else specifically on
either critical or key success factors.

Is anyone by chance aware of other previous research or white papers that
exist on this topic?

Thanks very much,

Tim Lane
