While the rapid advancement of
information technologies has improved data accessibility, it has also
introduced significant challenges in privacy and security. The risks of data
breaches and cyberattacks have increased due to the growing usage of personal
computers and the internet. This has particularly affected organizations,
leading them to adopt continuously updated security measures and standards to
protect information privacy and ensure robust security. To advance information
security management in organizations, the ISO/IEC 27001 standard was
established and has since gained worldwide adoption. This study investigates
how Robotic Process Automation (RPA) can significantly improve the
effectiveness of Information Security Management through a practical application
implemented within a company operating in the textile sector. By integrating
RPA, the company has automated the email encryption process, ensuring that
daily reports related to emails are securely directed only to the intended
recipients. With RPA integration, the encryption time for 30 reports has been reduced
from 36 hours to just 90 minutes (1.5 hours). As a result, multiple staff
previously dedicated to encryption have been reassigned to other tasks. Additionally,
a security vulnerability in a person-managed encryption process has been
eliminated.
