Description
We focus on the impact of individual habits of people on information security. More specifically, we ascertain the difference between conscious and unconscious errors in security breaches. Over the years, buzz words such as neuro-IS have come up, yet none have identified in a succinct manner, how issues pertaining to the human brain can be addressed.
