Paper Title
Automated Data Availability Modeling According to Information Management Structure
Abstract
Data availability plays an important role in the workflow of an enterprise. Therefore it is necessary to evaluate
the availability of different types of data used by an enterprise. Most existing solutions for evaluation of information
availability are based solely on hardware and software properties. Some solutions have information management process
based evaluation, which requires security expert knowledge and work for asset, threat and vulnerability identification. This
paper proposes a solution dedicated for small and medium enterprise, providing probabilistic metric of information
availability and requiring no security knowledge. This solution is based on information management structure and it
integrates equipment availability metrics from hardware and software risk assessment.
