Information security is also affected by the global economy. Organizations understand the security risks involved in their home country, but the security risks are often unknown when entering foreign markets. Foreign markets carry different risks. These risks range from military unrest, economic uncertainty, and uncertain weather and climate changes. The IS department must understand the global marketplace that is entered. IS needs to understand what products will work in the marketplace before entering, and the IS department is responsible for ensuring that the infrastructure is ready.
