dc.description.abstract | At a time of rapid business globalisation, it is necessary to
understand employee security behaviour within diverse cultural settings. While
general deterrence theory has been extensively used in Behavioural Information
Security research with the aim to explain the effect of deterrent factors on
employees’ security actions, these studies provide inconsistent and even
contradictory findings. Therefore, a further examination of deterrent factors in
the security context is required. The aim of this study is to contribute to the
emerging field of Behavioural Information Security research by investigating
how a combination of security countermeasures and cultural factors impact
upon employee security behaviour in organisations. A particular focus of this
project is to explore the effect of national culture and organisational culture on
employee actions as regards information security. Preliminary findings suggest
that organisational culture, national culture, and security countermeasures do
have an impact upon employee security behaviour. | en_IE |
