Abstract

The aim of this paper is to introduce phronesis and fractal knowledge to present a practical approach that can help a local public service to contextually understand the information assurance (IA) and cyber journey in a holistic way, by considering the various components that integrate information governance strategy, policy and assurance. It goes on to present a case study and ideas for further research. The fields of cyber security, information security and governance have a number of overlapping domains and spheres of interest. Within a local authority (LA), resources are sparce, with one person often having to oversee the entire security process, which is often regarded as an integral part of the information and communications technology (ICT) function.
