  • reigning in the remote employee applying social learning theory to explain information security policy compliance attitudes
    Americas Conference on Information Systems, 2010
    Co-Authors: Allen C Johnston, Barbara A Wech, Eric P Jack, Micah Beavers
    Abstract:

    In an era of heightened sensitivity to issues of privacy or information security, concerns over policy compliance by all employees is of great importance. Many organizations are increasing the resources devoted to compliance training and efforts to inform employees of proper compliance behavior. Compliance by remote employees, however, is especially challenging as they are often not privy to the same resources provided of their in-house counterparts. Through a survey of over 500 remote and in-house employees, this study reveals factors that contribute to policy compliance and the discrepancies that exist between remote and in-house employees toward that goal. The findings reveal compliance intentions are significantly impacted by levels of awareness and self-efficacy, which are themselves influenced by the external cues of situational support, Verbal Persuasion, and vicarious experience. Further the findings suggest that there are significant differences in the awareness, self-efficacy, and compliance intention levels of remote and in-house employees.

  • engaging remote employees the moderating role of remote status in determining employee information security policy awareness
    Journal of Organizational and End User Computing, 2000
    Co-Authors: Allen C Johnston, Barbara A Wech, Eric P Jack
    Abstract:

    Using social cognitive theory as a framework, this study proposes and tests a behavioral model to predict how "remote" status impacts the manner in which social learning cues influence employee awareness of information security policies and ultimately differentiates him or her from in-house employees in terms of information security policy awareness. Based on data acquired from an online sample of 435 fulltime employees across numerous industries and structural equation modeling analysis, the findings suggest that, compared to their in-house counterparts, remote employees experience lower levels of vicarious experiences, Verbal Persuasion, and situational support, thereby resulting in diminished levels of information security policy awareness. These findings have strong implications for managers of remote employees and for organizations seeking to reduce the risk associated with an ever-increasing remote workforce. The findings also advance social cognitive theory by incorporating information security policy awareness as an important outcome formed from perceptions of social learning cues external to the individual, but present within the organization.
