This study delves into the crucial intersection of personality traits and information security behaviors in an era of increasing
technological reliance. Using a quantitative approach, we explore the correlation between the Big Five Personality Traits (BFI) and the
Knowledge-Attitude-Behavior (KAB) components related to information security awareness. Our study, which involved 311
undergraduate students chosen through stratified random sampling, uses Spearman correlation analysis and logistic regression
modeling to examine correlations between personality traits from the BFI and information security risk status. The findings reveal
significant correlations, particularly highlighting the roles of neuroticism (33.33%), lack of direction (16.67%), extraversion (16.67%),
and antagonism (16.67%) in increasing susceptibility to security risks. The logistic regression model demonstrates 85.7% accuracy,
indicating its effectiveness in correlating personality traits with information security behaviors. The study underscores the importance
of considering individual personality profiles in cybersecurity strategies. By understanding the interplay between personality traits and
security behaviors, organizations can effectively develop targeted interventions to enhance information security awareness and
resilience. These findings provide a nuanced understanding of the psychological factors shaping cybersecurity attitudes and behaviors.
Also, these findings have significant implications for crafting targeted cybersecurity awareness programs, suggesting that integrating
personality traits into these initiatives could promote cyber-secure behavior more effectively. This research adds valuable insights to
information security, emphasizing the need for a more personalized approach to awareness strategies and future research to explore
this relationship further. |
