Summary: | Security in Health Information Systems (HIS) is a central concern of researchers,
academicians, and practitioners. Increased numbers of data security breaches have caused concern
over the humans’ role as the different users in security of HIS. Since many human errors or failures in
all information systems (IS) can be prevented with education and training, this study tries to
investigate the effects of education and training on significant human factors in HIS security. This
paper also proceeds in describing how the data was collected. Secondary data resources are used in
highlighting the security culture and security awareness of users as the significant factors for the
implementation of security effectiveness in the healthcare domain. The results from this research will
also provide some guidance and insights to both researchers and professionals of information security
in the health care domain. |
