Abstract
Information security is of great concern to IT users, who may hesitate or refuse to adopt IT appliances because of worries about security problems. The objective of this study was to investigate the antecedences and consequences of people's perception of information security. This study included three phases. In phase 1, a six-factor structure modeling people's perception of information security was developed through a survey study and exploratory factor analysis. In phase 2, the relations between people's perception of information security and their intention to adopt IT appliances were tested through a laboratory experiment and path analysis. Significant effects were found and a path model was developed. In phase 3, the implications of people's perception of information security for mobile phone were discussed through focus group. Mobile users' perception of mobile security in seven scenarios was summarized. Three personas of mobile security were developed.
