DOI 10.1109/scis-isis.2012.6505287
Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Information security auditing plays key role in providing any organization's good security level. By reason of high expenses of the audit process implementation, the automation of it through the development of the software may lead to a creation of a good alternative that will reduce costs, speed up the process of audit and improve its quality by the bringing it to compliance with international standards in information security. We suggest that fuzzy expert systems techniques can offer significant benefits when applied to this area. This paper presents some issues of the development of methodology and ontology for expert systems application concerning Information Security Audit (Expert System in Information Security Audit - ESISA).
