    Security of accounting information systems : A cross-sector study of UK companies

    Get PDF
    The issue of information systems (IS) security has received considerable attention from both academics and professionals. Information systems security has become a major part of core business processes in companies of all sizes and types, and it has become more vital than ever for companies to have an organised, efficient, and proactive security approach to their IS. Despite this importance, a number of significant gaps exist in the academic literature. Most of the previous studies have dealt with IS security or information security in general, without particular attention to accounting information systems (AIS) security. Security research is fragmented, and most previous studies lack an overall and comprehensive view of AIS security issues. Each study has tended to deal with a particular security dimension. In addition, much research on IS security has been overwhelmingly focused on the technical aspects with limited consideration given to non-technical issues such as security policy, training and awareness, risk assessment or security budget. In an attempt to fill these gaps, the current study presents an integrated view of AIS security in UK companies by addressing both the technical and non-technical aspects of security. The current study aims to investigate the AIS security level among UK companies in different industry sectors by investigating the sources and types of AIS security threats, the different types of controls implemented to prevent or reduce security threats, and the existence of a management framework for AIS security within UK companies in different sectors. To achieve the research objectives, the current study employed quantitative and qualitative approaches using a postal questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. The first stage involved sending a postal questionnaire to the IT managers of 800 UK listed companies in different industry sectors. A total of 104 responses were received, of which 65 responses were usable for statistical analysis. The second stage involved conducting nine interviews with IT managers of UK companies. The results indicated that some activities and practices forming the AIS security management framework are well known and undertaken by the majority of UK companies regardless of the industry sector for example AIS security policy, security risk assessment, security incident handling procedures, and a business continuity plan. However, security training and awareness program, security budget, and the British Standard for Information Security (BS 7799) are the most neglected security practices in the majority of companies. The results also showed that UK companies suffer from different types of security incidents however, many incidents go unreported because of the fear of negative publicity and the majority prefer to maintain their brand and to deal with these incidents internally. The results also revealed that employees are now the most common source of AIS security threats facing UK companies. In addition, the results suggested frequent occurrence of some types of security threats, for instance, employees' errors such as unintentional destruction of data by employees, spamming and malware attacks, and employees' sharing of passwords. Moreover, the majority of companies are paying more attention to software, hardware, input, and output security controls. However, more effort must be devoted to organisational and personnel controls

    Background Automated dispensing cabinets (ADCs) were introduced in 2010 and 2012 at the Heart Hospital (HH) and National Center for Cancer Care and Research (NCCCR), both run by Hamad Medical Corporation in Qatar. These medication distribution systems provide computer-controlled storage, dispensing, and tracking of drugs at the point of care in patient care units. The purpose of this study was to assess nurses’ perceptions of and satisfaction with the use of ADCs at HH and NCCCR. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in the two institutions in May and November 2012 using a piloted, validated, online, and anonymous questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of four parts: nurses’ sociodemographic and practice characteristics, 21 questions about their perceptions, one question about their overall satisfaction, and one about the system’s ease of use. The self-administered survey was distributed to 503 nurses working at HH and NCCCR over three weeks using Survey Monkey®. Results The survey response rate was 80 % (n = 403). No significant difference was found in perception scores between the two institutions (p = 0.06). Ninety-four percent (n = 378) of nurses agreed that the medication delivery system allowed them to do their job more safely, and 90 % (n = 363) nurses agreed that they now spent less time waiting for medication from the pharmacy than they did before the ADC system was introduced. Eighty seven percent (n = 349) nurses agreed that they were able to administer medication more efficiently with the ADC system. The overall satisfaction rate (either “very satisfied” or “satisfied”) for the two hospitals was 91 %. Conclusions The nurses’ perceptions of and levels of satisfaction with the ADC system were very good over the 6 months after complete implementation and integration at HH and NCCCR. ADCs appear to increase efficiency in the medication process and should therefore improve the quality of care

    El presente artículo analiza el homonacionalismo desde el cuestionamiento a los discursos culturalistas dicotómicos que dicho fenómeno plantea. En primer lugar, se describen las vinculaciones históricas entre diversidad sexual y de género, racismo y neoliberalismo. A continuación, se aborda la emergencia de un proceso de queerización de la islamofobia nutrido por la instrumentalización neoliberal de los sujetos queer para promover la representación LGBTQ+fóbica del islam. Acto seguido, se evidencia cómo la relación entre las políticas LGBTQ+ transnacionales y la islamofobia queerizada ha provocado un rechazo hacia lo LGBTQ+ en el marco de los Estados arabo-islámicos postcoloniales. Finalmente, se ahonda en el análisis de las identidades musulmanas queer contemporáneas poniendo el foco en sus formas diferenciadas de resistencia frente a los discursos de oposición entre islam y diversidad sexo-genérica, tanto los provenientes de interpretaciones tradicionalistas del islam, como los islamófobos propios del homonacionalismoThis article examines homonationalism through the questioning of the dichotomic culturalist discourses that such phenomenon poses. Firstly, it describes the historical connections between gender and sexual diversity, racism and neoliberalism. Next, it addresses the emergence of a process of queerization of Islamophobia, nourished by the neoliberal instrumentalization of queer subjects with the objective of promoting an LGBTQ+phobic depiction of Islam. Thereafter, it calls attention to how the combination of transnational LGBTQ+ politics and queered Islamophobia caused a rejection towards the LGBTQ+ within the context of Arab-Islamic postcolonial states. Finally, it delves into the analysis of contemporary queer Muslim identities, focusing on their differentiated forms of resistance in the face of the discourses that oppose Islam and gender and sexual diversity, both of those coming from traditionalist interpretations of Islam, and those coming from homonationalismContratado predoctoral en la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid en calidad de beneficiario de la ayuda FPI MICINN.

    Existing pharmacological treatments for bipolar disorder (BPD) and major depressive disorder (MDD) are often insufficient for many patients. Here we describe a number of targets/compounds that clinical and preclinical studies suggest could result in putative novel treatments for mood disorders. These include: (1) glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) and protein kinase C (PKC), (2) the purinergic system, (3) histone deacetylases (HDACs), (4) the melatonergic system, (5) the tachykinin neuropeptides system, (6) the glutamatergic system, and (7) oxidative stress and bioenergetics. The paper reviews data on new compounds that have shown antimanic or antidepressant effects in subjects with mood disorders, or similar effects in preclinical animal models. Overall, an improved understanding of the neurobiological underpinnings of mood disorders is critical in order to develop targeted treatments that are more effective, act more rapidly, and are better tolerated than currently available therapies

    The Pilot Health Project (PHP) was designed to address Palestinian women’s most pressing reproductive health needs. This report presents results from a single cross-sectional study that was conducted by the Health, Development, Information and Policy Institute (HDIP) between May and August 2000 in order to determine the baseline measures for the PHP’s key outcome indicators among healthcare providers and clients in the PHP clinics. Based on the findings reflected by the study, a number of recommendations were made that need to be followed up and implemented by the Improved Village and Community Health Services Project. These include the need for establishing referral mechanisms to promote wider coverage of essential postpartum care, the need for providing continuous training for service providers, and the importance of raising public awareness about the health benefits of spacing births. The study also recommended integrating breast self-examination and cervical cancer screening into routine primary healthcare services
