5. Conclusion
Knowledge Management has tremendous importance and role in SI in telecommunication sector organizations in
particular and all other organizations in general. The results show that through better KM organizations can get
their information secure and safe. Through KM organizations can not only make their strategy secure but also
their products and services.
Security of Information, which is an outcome of KM further gives many advantageous elements which
are the need of modern day firms. The relationship and extant of dependence were checked and validated
through correlation and regression. It was found that there are strong, positive and significant relationship of SI
with IG, IRM and SOK. There fore it became crystal clear that SI not only gives us security to organizational
memory or information but also enhances the capability of good information governance, increases the potential
of Information Risk Management.
In other words we can say that organizations can make their information or knowledge secure through
better KM. SI further gives IG, IRM and SOK. There fore if an organization wants to get better IG, reduce
information risks and SOK, it should provide high security to its organization information.
5.1 Recommendations
The following recommendations are made after carrying out the research.
1. The importance of Knowledge Management becomes further clear for the Security of Information and it
is recommended that organizations should manage their knowledge to get their strategic and all other
type of information secured. As some information is less important than other so the information with
high importance value should be manage with the most affordable and achievable level.
2. Use of information is another important element of success for organizations but the way they use and
utilize this information is the most important. Most of the information or knowledge are department and
individual specific and if they go to wrong place can make severe damage to the organization’s success.
Therefore knowledge and information should be managed in such a way to be governed effectively and
efficiently.
3. To overcome and minimize the loss and improper use of information and knowledge, the practice of
Knowledge Management should be used. Interestingly KM gives security to all of the organizational
knowledge and security further reduces the risk of loss and illegal use.
4. Knowledge of an organization can be kept secure by providing proper lock and key system. This will
make these information secure and will provide safety to the firm’s knowledge. Therefore it is strongly
recommended that organizations should grant and give security to their knowledge for keeping all of
their organizational knowledge protected.
5. Lastly, it summarized that KM is the key source of achieving security of information. With out KM, SI
can never be achieved in telecommunication sector especially and in other sector organizations
generally. In addition, SI further gives effective and advantageous information governance, reduces
information related risks and maximizes safety to organizational knowledge. Based on the above
analysis and results the author proposed that IG, ISM and SOK are achieved by providing enough
security to information; and SI can only be achieved through proper KM.
