Welcome to the ISIG website

ISIG is now Information Risk and Security (IRS)

This site is undergoing a total rebuild, we apologise for any out of date information during this process.

The IS Integrity Group is a multi-disciplinary research group which examines aspects of information systems security from a social science perspective, rather than the more traditional technological approach.

It was formerly the Computer Security Research Centre (CSRC) but has its present name from 15th April 2004.This reflects its position within the LSE, the world's leading social science institution for teaching and research. The IS Integrity Group is committed to collaborative research which bridges the gap between academics and practitioners.

This site is a starting point for anyone interested in the work of the IS Integrity Group. Our work may be of particular relevance to academics, practitioners, policy makers and regulators in the fields of information security, information society, computer-related crime and evidence, money laundering and data protection. We welcome contact from all those interested in our work.
