Security of information systems as a new area of information technology is of a great importance in creating confidence and growth in the use of information systems. Although in recent years many researchers and IT experts have focused on the technical aspects of security, but less attention has been paid to its organizational and managerial aspects. To investigate the factors affecting on the creating and maintaining of security of information systems, this study identifies the inter-organizational factors. Then, by designing a questionnaire and using Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchical Process (FAHP) technique, the weights and ranks of factors are calculated. The results show that human factor is the most important inter-organizational factor that influences information systems security. Also, the lack of information about the value and importance of information is identified as the most important sub factor.

Planning and decision making are the basic duties of a project manager which without them it is almost impossible to reach the project goals. In planning and decision making process, firstly, risk factors should be identified and after that their impacts and probabilities should be measured. Therefore, risk management is a critical part of the project management and, ignorance of risk factors is one of the primary causes for the project to be failed. The purpose of this paper is to measure risk factors of IT projects .In this research, 13 main factors are identified, then, based on literature and experts opinion these factors are categorized in 3 groups (project factors, software factors, and internal and external organizational factors). Finally, using Monte Carlo simulation, risk associated with each factor is quantified. As the results of this research show “recourse” is the main factor for IT project. To be effective, managers need to consider suitable strategies in order to decrease the dangers related to the possible risks in the resources.

Evolution of modern Technologies in the field of the Internet and Web in the last decade, especially Web 2.0 and its effect on the nature of Business Environment resulted in vast using of these Technologies in the Organizations too. A modern generation of Organizations evolved in which because of their importance and differences with the old one called Enterprise 2.0. Although talking about applying E-2.0 and its related technologies is somehow difficult, but it is helpful to identify Benefits of heading toward Enterprise 2.0 and based the shift based on these benefits. In this Study by reviewing related literature, six critical success Factor of Enterprise 2.0 have identified and prioritized including Knowledge Management, communication, information, collaboration, business process and innovation. Our prioritization of these Factors is done by AHP method and based on six experts in the field of information technology.
