Abstract

This case study examines Baylor University's risk assessment program for information technology security, which was established in the face of the escalating demands that security places on information technology organizations. The case study was undertaken as part of ECAR's 2006 study of information technology security practices in higher education, which included a literature review, quantitative and qualitative date from 492 higher education institutions in the U.S. and Canada, input from IT security leaders and specialists, and three case studies.
