...India's Economic Reforms Montek S Ahluwalia* The past three years have seen major changes in India's economic policies marking a new phase in India's development strategy. The broad thrust of the new policies is not very different from the changes being implemented in other developing countries and also all over the erstwhile socialist world. They aim at reducing the extent of Government controls over various aspects of the domestic economy, increasing the role of the private sector, redirecting scarce public sector resources to areas where the private sector is unlikely to enter, and opening up the economy to trade and foreign investment. These changes have been accompanied by a lively debate in India and have also attracted interest abroad. International opinion has typically welcomed the reforms and generally urged a much faster pace of implementation, especially in view of changes taking place in other countries. Within India, opinion has been more varied. There are some who question the very direction of reform, but this is definitely a minority opinion. More generally, the broad direction of reform has met with wide approval, but there are differences of view on what should be the pace and sequencing of reforms. While there is widespread support for the elimination of bureaucratic controls over domestic producers, there are differences on such issues as the speed at which protection to domestic industry should be reduced, the extent to which domestic industry...

...Introduction When implementing a security policy many elements should be considered. For example, the size of the organization, the industry, classification of the data processed, and even the organization’s work load must be taken into account. As with any industry, selecting the proper security framework for an insurance organization should be done cautiously. This is because having too strict of a policy may inconvenience the employees or even their customers. Because of this, consultants must bear in mind that the information handled by insurance organizations is not as sensitive as a healthcare organization, for example. Nonetheless, establishing compliance is important to protect customer information and abide by U.S laws and regulations. Organizations must also identify and address some of the framework implementation challenges that may arise. These challenges are not exclusive to one organization, but all who develop a security policy framework. It is up to the organization to be able to overcome these issues with the proper strategies. IT Security Framework for the Insurance Company An ideal security framework the insurance company should abide by is the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 27001. This standard explains the requirements for companies to meet their Information Security Management System (ISMS) needs. It provides companies with guidance to establish, implement, maintain, and improve their information security (“An...
