“…The research data population is journals with a focus on the financial performance of the tourism industry before and after COVID-19. Systematic Literature Review (SLR) is defined as the process of identifying, assessing and interpreting all available research evidence with the aim of providing answers to specific research questions (Kitchenham & Brereton, 2013;Taneski et al, 2019). Systematic Literature Review is a term used to refer to a particular research or research methodology and development carried out to collect and evaluate related research on a particular topic focus.…”

Purpose of the study: The COVID-19 pandemic has made the tourism sector unstable, where during the COVID-19 pandemic, the tourism industry faced several risks such as decreased revenue and operating profits, this decline certainly affected the company's financial performance. This study aims to explore and describe the trends and evolution of the latest academic literature on the financial performance of the tourism industry before and after the COVID-19 pandemic which were published as relevant articles. Design/methodology: This study uses the concept of literature review using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) technique. The Systematic Literature Review technique is an important feature of academic research. By summarizing, analyzing, and synthesizing a group of related literature, can test certain hypotheses and/or develop new theories. Findings: The results of the study show that the financial performance of the tourism industry before and after COVID-19 is dominant using profitability ratio measurements. Research limitations/Implications: One limitation of this study is the reliance on secondary data sources for the literature review. As the study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) technique, it may be limited by the availability and quality of existing literature on the financial performance of the tourism industry before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Novelty/Originality of the study: This research can be used as material for consideration for conducting further research on the financial performance using activity ratios and market ratios.

“…Most online services require an account, and the user must authenticate to give proof of the ownership of their account. Authentication is still done mainly through passwords, although it is commonly known that passwords are a relatively weak method to protect a user account (Taneski et al, 2019). This has been confirmed in many studies, highlighting the problems with simple passwords and the reluctance to use password managers (Hayashi and Hong, 2011;Shen et al, 2016;Davis et al, 2022).…”

Nowadays, most online services offer different authentication methods that users can set up for multi-factor authentication but also as a recovery method. This configuration must be done thoroughly to prevent an adversary's access while ensuring the legitimate user does not lose access to their account. This is particularly important for fundamental everyday services, where either failure would have severe consequences. Nevertheless, little research has been done on the authentication of actual users regarding security and the risk of being locked out of their accounts. To foster research in this direction, this paper presents a study on the account settings of Google and Apple users. Considering the multi-factor authentication configuration and recovery options, we analyzed the account security and lock-out risks. Our results provide insights into the usage of multi-factor authentication in practice, show significant security differences between Google and Apple accounts, and reveal that many users would miss access to their accounts when losing a single authentication device.

“…However, they are still weak in securing all kinds of information systems. Users' careless security behaviour, involving password reuse, writing down and sharing passwords, and creating short or low-quality passwords are the main problems related to password security issues [14]. Modelling users' risky online behaviour based on analysing millions of passwords, both the most frequent passwords and how users create new passwords, can be helpful to hackers [15,16].…”

As the leading cause of security breaches is human susceptibility to hackers' deception, the riskiness of an individual's online behaviour and low awareness regarding privacy protection significantly influence the overall security of an information system. Thus, this study aimed to compare self-assessed and measured real risk in online behaviour among online users. The additional aim was to modify the questionnaire by replacing the existing trick question about password quality with the new questions on accepting the terms and conditions. An international online Behavioral Cognitive Internet Security Questionnaire (BCISQ), validated in previous studies, was used for data collection. The examinees involved in this study were 278 students from different faculties. The results showed a relatively high level of risk in online behaviour, as 22.7% of examinees revealed their passwords. In comparison, only 10.8% read the consent statement. Students who behave in a riskier manner self-assess themselves as being significantly safer in online behaviour, which is contradictory. They also performed worse in all other examined variables. The new version of the simulation subscale, with improved internal consistency and reliability (Cronbach's Alfa=0.810), consists of only three items, which are questions used in the previous version, without adding any of the two tested trick questions. Generally, this study concludes that, on average, information security awareness is still low among online users and that even the ones realistically acting riskier believe they are acting more safely.
