On the strength of experience with risk analysis methodology in IT-operating enterprises, an approach has to be able to deal with limited resources. This prompts an analyst to perform a heuristic and biased approach, which is typically a questionnaire structured by a IT security standard. The difficulty is to draw up a limited set of concise IT security related questions, which result in meaningful outcomes for IT risk analysis purposes. In the proposed approach, the Code of Practice ISO/IEC 27002 is used to structure the analysis and to restrict the number of questions. The Code's recommendations are rephrased and a Guttman scale is introduced for an IT security FMEA-like risk analysis approach. For frequency assessments it is assumed that an implemented high-level security measurement results in low frequencies of undesired events. The paper pictures the adapted IT-FMEA approach and presents the results of a feasibility study at Switzerland's leading telecom provider.

Many industry sectors look back on a downright success story in development and implementing risk and reliability analysis methods. However the application of these methods seems to be questionable to enterprises in the area of information and communication technology (ICT) even though risk and reliability assessments are prominent on company and superordinate level. Major causes of reluctance are addressed in the paper:sophisticated analyses are not in line with the allocated resources. The acceptance of risk analysis methods in ICT strictly requires the inclusion of IT security issues and associated standards. The full performance of risk analysis to support the ranking of hazards or threats and prioritisation of measurements is often unknown to IT practitioners.The paper presents three projects accomplished at ICT operating enterprises in Switzerland in order to encircle the actual application of risk and reliability analyses in practice. Furthermore, it is outlined that national institutions as MELANI (Swiss Federal "Reporting and Analysis Centre for Information Assurance") support the risk analyses in enterprises. In order to communicate the full performance of risk and reliability methodology to IT practitioners, an extended educational concept is briefly presented.(ESREL 08; Vol 4).

The analyses presented in this study show the
suitability of the proposed method to complex electromagnetic (EM) problems.
The finite element method (FEM) which uses weighted extended basis-splines
(web-splines) is applied to waveguides of arbitrary domain. The eigenvalue
analysis is used to compare the proposed method with the standard FEM. Firstly;
homogeneous essential boundary conditions can be modeled via weight function,
which is zero on the boundary and positive in the domain. Secondly, a well
conditioned basis can be obtained by extended b-splines. Combining these two
ideas gives the definition of web-splines.

of finite element method of
arbitrary domain for waveguides. This method does not need mesh generation for
applications. The results are compared with the finite element method with
triangulation method using Lagrange basis functions. This method can be used in
more electromagnetic applications for future studies.

In this paper, a newly developed discrete
multilayer propagation model using scattering theory is studied using
rectangular lossy multilayer dielectric plates which model the walls, the
streets, and avenues in urban areas. The model is presented to study radio wave
propagation in street environments and to compare it with previous theoretical
and experimental studies. Good agreements are found. Using the developed model,
it is possible to calculate the contributions of direct and scattered wave
separately. The simulations reveal that the developed model can be applicable
for a broad band of frequencies. This model can be used effectively for
prediction of loss characteristics in a situation when two antennas are located
below the rooftops in conditions of direct visibility.

The finite element method, which uses weighted
extended basis splines (web-splines) for solving two-dimensional
electromagnetic wave equations, has been studied. The web-spline method, which
does not need any mesh generation, is implemented easily. The web-spline method
is more accurate numerical technique than the standard finite-element method.
This new approach is applied to two-dimensional wave equations. The
approximated solutions are compared with the literature. Using web-splines,
more accurate results are obtained with fewer nodes.

Electromagnetic (EM) scattering from curved surface and cylinder is important in the area of propagation and remote sensing in order to determine EM properties of scatterers. The radar cross sections (RCS) of a dielectric thin curved surface and cylinder are obtained by employing a quasi-static approximation. The results are complemented by numerical calculations and their validity is presented by comparison with available exact results in literature. Excellent agreement is found for horizontal and vertical polarization.

Today society highly relies on complex information and communication
technology (ICT). However, this technology is difficult to handle for established risk and reliability analysis modelling techniques (e.g.Markov chains) in practice. In this regard analysis techniques need sophisticated capabilities to represent complex systems as well as applicability in a business framework. High-level Petri nets and agent-based modelling (ABM) overcome a few methodological constraints in risk analysis. However, the former looks laborious in practice when trying to extract risk and reliability figures. Changing the view from ICT to conceptual information
systems simplifies their representation and opens managerial knowledge sources. In this paper, an ABM technique is used. The associated metamodel consists of business processes, modelled by event-driven process chains and simulated by the means of a discrete event ABM (including human interactions, hardware failures, etc.). The case study "Ticket Reseller" shows and discusses its feasibility.

Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has an important impact on critical infrastructure operation. However, the current use of risk analysis techniques has reached its limits when analysing these systems at least in practical terms. The application of extended event process chains (EPC) bypasses some of the difficulties, as they model business processes within an information system instead of much more complex hardware architectures and software interactions. The methodology
described in this paper integrates ARIS (Architecture Integrated Information Systems) and FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), i.e., a business modelling method based on EPCs and a risk assessment technique which are well established in their areas of application and branches of competence. A novel risk representation is discussed. The practicability of the methodology is demonstrated by a feasibility study. Geneva: Inderscience Enterprises, 2005; p. 247 – 257

In this paper we have introduced new RCS
model for the curved arbitrary dielectric surfaces, which can be thought as
consisting of N rectangular lossy dielectric plates. Our simulations revealed
that the developed model is applicable for a broad band of frequencies. This
model can be used effectively for prediction of RCS in situation when
dielectric surfaces are arbitrary and/or irregular shapes. If the shape of the
object is entered to simulation program in great detail, the output can be very
close to results, which are obtained by measurements.

The paper outlines the implementation of HRA in the framework of the IT-department of a major Swiss bank. The applicability of HRA techniques is shown by the case studies "Patch Management" and "Hardware Monitoring" which also include error probability assessments. Finally, a compilation of six case studies applying eight selected HRA techniques judges their practicability and usability. It is concluded that THERP and ASEP are the most appropriate techniques for analysing tasks in
system monitoring, testing, and operation.HRA techniques based upon PSF
are of limited practicability. Berlin, London, etc: Springer-Verlag,. 2004; p.650-655

The
need for wireless communication data has increased considerably in past
decades. In this paper we have introduced new propagation model for the streets
and avenues in urban areas that can be thought as a wave-guide for EM-waves.
Using our developed model it is possible to calculate the contributions of each
direct and scattered wave separately. We don’t assume the sidewalls as perfect
conducting materials in our developed model unlike the previous studies. Our
simulations revealed that developed model is applicable for broadband of
frequencies. If the shape of the wave-guide is entered to simulation program in
great detail, the output can be very close to results that are obtained by
measurements. Even the shape is not entered very accurately; an approximate
result can be obtained if the fast result is needed.
