ABSTRACT
As the new generation of Information Technology is progressing at a rapid pace, with big data establishing a trend in organisations, integration between systems becomes substantial. This chapter examines the information security measures of m-BI from two main perspectives: organisations as m-BI providers and organisations as m-BI users. It looks at information security as a system that has become an essential part of Business Intelligence (BI). BI systems represent one type of decision support system (DSS) with a focus on data analysing and presenting actionable information to decision-makers in an accessible and visual manner. The providers offer their m-BI solution once it is protected through encryption and authentication algorithms regardless of data sensitivity. The chapter suggests that information security measures are implemented and integrated into the m-BI system both from the providers' and organisations' perspectives. Organisations that have implemented m-BI take a more data-centric strategy to protect their information.
