Information Protection - A Comparative Analysis of Popular Models

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a comparative analysis between three models i.e. Lord’s model, Hampshire’s child trust model and cognitive agent model for protecting information before sharing it to others. For this purpose, we have studied the factors of each model that are used for sharing sensitive information to other modules in the models. Lord’s model contains four factors i.e. open, honest, consent and seeks advice for developing ‘trust’ to whom the sensitive information is going to be shared. According to the Lord’s model, we must ensure that what we are sharing with others, keep in mind the protection of our as well as others. Hampshire’s children trust model contains two factors i.e. the consent and legal rights for sharing sensitive information to others. For information protection in cognitive science, cognitive agent is based multiple factors i.e. implicit and explicit learning, Situatory responses along with some cognitive correlates factors such as intention, perception, motivation and emotions.
