New technologies, methodologies, and products require a competent project manager who is able to meet the requirements of the digital age. Thus, the aim of this paper is: an analysis of the relevant theoretical context, the necessary competencies of the project manager, consideration of his position and actions in the organizational framework, and especially in organizations dealing with security. Also, the paper deals with the analysis of the model DevSecOps that implements security within IT practices. The results of the presented research indicate the fact that the total number of jobs performed by the project manager shows global growth in quantitative and qualitative terms. Research on human resource development in the field of project management distinguishes innovators from traditionalists. Innovators, in the age of globalization, have given priority to security training, followed by market topics, data science, innovative ways of behaving, and collaborative leadership. A case study is presented, which considers the steps of building a new product in the field of IT with implemented activities that provide an adequate level of security.

Iso 27001 in Banking: An Evaluation of Its Implementation and Effectiveness in Enhancing Information Security

“…As financial institutions increasingly leverage technology to enhance services and operations, the critical need to safeguard sensitive information against sophisticated cyber threats becomes paramount (Adebukola et al, 2023, Parate, Josyula, and Reddi, 2023, Zhou and Li, 2023). In response to this imperative, the adoption of robust information security frameworks has gained prominence, with ISO 27001 emerging as a globally recognized standard for Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) (Buha, and Bjegović, 2023). This study understudies the intricate landscape of ISO 27001 implementation within the banking sector, evaluating its effectiveness in fortifying information security.…”
