| Summary: | A range of online security concerns confront internet users, necessitating the implementation of safety measures. Students at UMP are required to be aware of cyber security issues. Undergraduate and graduate students are the target audience for this study, which aims to gauge their degree of knowledge regarding information security. To accomplish the goal of this research, we are utilizing the Protection Motivation Model Theory (PMT) approach. A survey of (N=148) respondents was conducted using PMT to ascertain the extent to which knowledge of PMT factors predicted security objectives. Online safety intentions were best predicted by coping appraisal characteristics, particularly self-efficacy and response efficacy. Threat assessment was another important predictor. The traditional PMT model incorporates threat susceptibility and threat severity. |
