The dynamics of control and resistance: Micro-level theorizing of professional resistance under new public management

Abstract

This research seeks to analyze the impact of Information Security breaches prone to selected Ghanaian banking institutions from the year 2000 to 2009. The results of this work were obtained through the review of related literature, questionnaires and observation. The results obtained are analyzed using the evaluative reporting of the data, supported by tables and charts where applicable. Recommendations are subsequently made to address the security breaches identified. The outcome of the research tends to place the findings in context by elaborating on how the research findings and results contribute to the field of Information Security in general and what sort of broader implications these may have. This will a I low for greater understanding of Information Security issues within the banking sector and hopefully prompt for further in-depth research into its impact on the institutions and customers as a whole. A recommendation is made to banks to define the Information Security policy and effectively implement the policies by educating all staff on acceptable and best practices.
