CALL FOR PAPERS for the Minitrack: Moving Beyond Traditional
Constructs in Information Security Research
2021 Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) VIRTUAL
August 09-13, 2021
https://amcis2021.aisconferences.org/
Dear Colleagues,
We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to the minitrack:
Moving Beyond Traditional Constructs in Information Security
Research, under the Information Security and Privacy track of the
2021 AMCIS conference, which will take place on 09-13 August, 2021
VIRTUALLY.
Track: Information Security and Privacy (SIGSEC)
Minitrack: Moving Beyond Traditional Constructs in Information
Security Research
DESCRIPTION
Employees are organizations' core assets that interact with
Information Systems (IS) in order to perform their tasks; however
numerous studies have reported that employees noncompliance of IS
security policies is the main cause of security breaches within
organizations. Over the last decade, the IS research community has
contributed substantial research in order to understand the causes
underlying IS security noncompliance. Most of this research draws
upon the General Deterrence Theory and Theory of Planned Behavior
theory to explain the behavior that motivates IS security
compliance. Even though the existing research has significantly
contributed to the understanding of the phenomenon of IS security
noncompliance, several studies have reported non-convergent
findings. The purpose of this mini-track is to provide a forum to
present and discuss theoretical models, methodologies, and
empirical cases concerning employees' behaviors and noncompliance
with IS security policies.
This mini-track aims to investigate new theories and constructs
that have not been explored in IS security compliance literature.
Therefore, we invite innovative papers that explore new constructs
and theories that address a variety of issues pertaining
employees' behaviors towards IS security in organizations. The
goal is to advance our understanding of the IS security
noncompliance phenomenon. Cross-cultural studies or comparative
studies highlighting differences and similarities regarding
employees' behaviors with IS security in emerging and developing
countries are also welcome.
