A grave concern to an organization’s information security is employees’ behavior when they do not value information security policy compliance (ISPC). Most ISPC studies evaluate compliance and noncompliance behaviors separately. However, the literature lacks a comprehensive understanding of the factors that transform the employees’ behavior from noncompliance to compliance. Therefore, we conducted a systematic literature review (SLR), highlighting the studies done concerning information security behavior (ISB) towards ISPC in multiple settings: research frameworks, research designs, and research methodologies over the last decade. We found that ISPC research focused more on compliance behaviors than noncompliance behaviors. Value conflicts, security-related stress, and neutralization, among many other factors, provided significant evidence towards noncompliance. At the same time, internal/external and protection motivations proved positively significant towards compliance behaviors. Employees perceive internal and external motivations from their social circle, management behaviors, and organizational culture to adopt security-aware behaviors. Deterrence techniques, management behaviors, culture, and information security awareness play a vital role in transforming employees’ noncompliance into compliance behaviors. This SLR’s motivation is to synthesize the literature on ISPC and ISB, identifying the behavioral transformation process from noncompliance to compliance. This SLR contributes to information system security literature by providing a behavior transformation process model based on the existing ISPC literature.

The advancement of information communication technology in healthcare institutions has increased information security breaches. Scholars and industry practitioners have reported that most security breaches are due to negligence towards organizational information security policy compliance (ISPC) by healthcare employees such as nurses. There is, however, a lack of understanding of the factors that ensure ISPC among nurses, especially in developing countries such as Malaysia. This paper develops and examines a research framework that draws upon the factors of organizational climate of information security (OCIS) and social bond theory to enhance ISPC among nurses. A questionnaire was adopted in which responses were obtained from 241 nurses employed in 30 hospitals in Malaysia. The findings from the study demonstrated that the ISPC among nurses is enhanced through OCIS factors. The influence on ISPC was even more significant when examined by the mediating effect of the social bond. It implies that influential OCIS factors reinforce social bonds among nurses and eventually increase the ISPC. For information security practitioners, the study findings emphasize the prevalence of socio-active information security culture in healthcare organizations to enhance ISP compliance among nurses.
