S. 21.Universities are increasingly exposed to cybersecurity threats focused on personal data, research information, and IT service availability. Their open, decentralized environment, characterized by academic freedom, also increases vulnerability to cyber-attacks and internal security weaknesses. Effective cybersecurity management in this context requires structured, transparent, and coordinated processes that respect the specific characteristics of academic life. Business process modeling (BPM) can serve as a practical tool to document, improve, and communicate key security- related activities. This contribution explores how BPM tools can support cybersecurity process management in universities. Specifically, it compares two modeling tools OpenBPM and ADONIS, in terms of their usability and effectiveness for visualizing selected processes related to university cybersecurity. The focus is not on the tools themselves, but on whether process clarity plays a more significant role than the tool choice. This contribution aims to share practical experience by comparing the usability of BPM tools in supporting university cybersecurity managers in balancing academic freedom with effective security management.enCC BY-NC Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0.
