Purpose-The paper aims to investigate the current Information Systems Security (ISS) practices of the Social Software Application (SSA) users via the Internet. Design/methodology/approach-The paper opted for a systematic literature review (SLR) survey on ISS and its practices in SSAs between 2010 and 2015. The studiy includes a set of 39 papers from among 1,990 retrieved papers published in thirty-three high impact journals. The selected papers were filtered using the Publish or Perish (PoP) software by Harzing and Journal Citation Index (JCR) with an inclusion criterion of least 1 citation per article. Findings-The practice of ISS is driven by the need to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the data from being tampered. It is coherent with the current practice as reported by many researchers in this study. Four important factors lead to the ISS practice in SSA: protection tools offered, ownership, user behavior and security policy. Practical implications-The paper highlights the implication of successful ISS practices is having clear security purpose and security supported environment (user behavior and security protection tools) and governance (security policy and ownership) protection tools offered, ownership, user behavior and security policy towards ISS practice by the users. Originality/value-This paper fulfills an identified need to study how to enable ISS practice.
Introduction. Sharing information on Facebook is becoming increasingly popular. Sharing text, video, voice, and pictures with unique content of the language-specific and sacred text, is becoming a trend. Consequently, issues of secure and trustable content have become increasingly important to all netizens. This issue has its foundations in the intention to share behaviour where the emphasis is on user security behaviour when sharing specific content. Method. The proposed theory was adapted and modified from previous research to empirically evaluate survey data collected from 154 Facebook users. A snowball sampling method was used. Analysis. A quantitative analysis was carried out on the data, which related to 154 Facebook users. This analysis used SmartPLS software. Results. The experience of information sharing was found to be an important determinant of personal outcome expectation as it explained about 89.9 per cent of the total variance. The ability to create and share information, subjective norms, feedback, information sharing self-efficacy, personal outcome expectations, and information security behaviour have become most important factors when intending to share specific content on Facebook. Conclusions. There is a theoretical understanding of security behaviour as a factor that promotes specific-content sharing behaviour on Facebook.
The purpose of this research is to identify the effect of workplace cyberbullying on Generation Z (Gen Z) by constructing a model using specific determinants: demographic factors (gender, race/ethnicity, and education), technology-related factors, and individual factors. The research design of the proposed research is quantitative. A self-administered questionnaire adapted from previous studies will be distributed to respondents (Gen Z) in Selangor. A purposive sampling method will be applied. Data collected will be analyzed through the partial least square (SmartPLS) technique. Then, the findings of this research are expected to specify significant differences between demographic factors and workplace cyberbullying based on gender, race/ethnicity, and education. The finding will also identify the technologyrelated and individual factors driving Gen Z to perpetrate cyberbullying in the workplace. The quantitative method for this research will enable researchers to explore beyond the variables that will be tested. The results are anticipated to assist various parties such as the government to design better models to address workplace cyberbullying issues, develop policy and strategize preventive measures in the long term to become a top morally conservative nation. The research on workplace cyberbullying is inimitably fascinating. A practical framework based on workplace cyberbullying factors among Gen Z will be developed as a guideline and will support the government's effort to increase awareness among youngsters.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
