This study tests competing theories of how the relationship between rationality in strategic decision processes and firm performance may be moderated by environmental dynamism. Results, based on a survey of 101 manufacturing firms, indicate a positive rationality-performance relationship for firms facing dynamic environments, but no relationship between rationality and performance for firms facing stable environments. Implications for future research are discussed.

Security and privacy issues are often an afterthought when it comes to system design. However, failure to address these issues during analysis and design could result in catastrophic effects. We propose a conceptual model for creating subsystems of security and privacy that are integral parts of the overall system architecture.
