And, it was asked all departments of Executive Yuan and local government to process aggressively by regulation on December 25, 2013. This study examines information security development program, and strategies for meeting e-government and information security management requirements within the implementation of information security development programs through information security management systems (ISMS). Moreover, an action program for improved ISMS performance, using an approach combining ISG and ISMS, is proposed. Based on this, this research employs history analysis and in-depth interview methodologies to develop insights into e-Taiwan information security management. Furthermore, the research objective is to examine the relevance between the execution of e-government and information security management framework and ISMS implementation by using the ISG project approach.
