Is Security

A large part of information systems (IS) security approaches is technical in nature with less consideration on people and organizational issues. The research presented in this paper adopts a broader perspective and presents an understanding of IS security in terms of a social and organizational perspective. In doing so, it uses the communication of risk messages among the members of IT groups in setting Internet banking goals in order to identify any weaknesses in security management procedures. The novel approach of this investigation is that explores and presents the issues of risk communication and goal setting in Internet banking security through indepth interviews within three case studies. That said, it promotes an interdisciplinary and inter-organizational theory which fosters a new dialog that transcends security industry specific contexts as opposed to other studies. Interview results suggest how an effective setting of Internet banking security goals can be achieved through specific considerations for improving the communication of security messages. The research contributes to interpretive information systems with the study of risk communication and goal setting in an Internet banking security context.

The Impact

A distinctive feature of modern higher education, based on the activity approach, is the orientation of the entire educational process towards diagnosed goals. These goals are formed as educational results presented in the actions of the students themselves. It should be noted that the skill of goal setting is not formed spontaneously in the course of training — it is the result of a specially organized process, therefore the development of a methodology for teaching goal setting is one of the urgent problems in pedagogy. Goal setting is the process of creating a system of goals, correlating them with each other and choosing priority goals, and this is of particular importance for graduates of the IT direction of training. The development of the ability to set goals contributes to a clear vision of the prospects and opportunities for personal and professional self-realization of the subject. By the third year, students of the “Information Systems and Technologies” direction have already accumulated a certain amount of knowledge, but the most laborious thing in the course of studying the disciplines of the professional cycle is acquiring the professional ability to set goals correctly. A study of the literature and different approaches to solving this problem led the authors to develop a training session. The training for the development of the personality’s ability to set goals was developed on the basis of the SMART method. The technique was tested at the Department of Informatics and Applied Mathematics of Bratsk State University for three years and gave positive results. The advantage of the training is that the impact is carried out on all components of the ability to set goals. The formation of positive dynamics to goal-setting after passing the educational training has been proved.

And Performance

Abstract. The positive effects of goal setting on motivation and performance are among the most established findings of industrial–organizational psychology. Accordingly, goal setting is a common management technique. Lately, however, potential negative effects of goal-setting, for example, on unethical behavior, are increasingly being discussed. This research replicates and extends a laboratory experiment conducted in the United States. In one of three goal conditions (do-your-best goals, consistently high goals, increasingly high goals), 101 participants worked on a search task in five rounds. Half of them (transparency yes/no) were informed at the outset about goal development. We did not find the expected effects on unethical behavior but medium-to-large effects on subjective variables: Perceived fairness of goals and goal commitment were least favorable in the increasing-goal condition, particularly in later goal rounds. Results indicate that when designing goal-setting interventions, organizations may consider potential undesirable long-term effects.

Abstract. Digitalization, enhanced storage capacities, and the Internet of Things increase the volume of data in modern organizations. To process and make use of these data and to avoid information overload, management information systems (MIS) are introduced that collect, process, and analyze relevant data. However, a precondition for the application of MIS is that users trust them. Extending accounts of trust in automation and trust in technology, we introduce a new model of trust in MIS that addresses the conceptual ambiguities of existing conceptualizations of trust and integrates initial empirical work in this field. In doing so, we differentiate between perceived trustworthiness of an MIS, experienced trust in an MIS, intentions to use an MIS, and actual use of an MIS. Moreover, we consider users’ perceived risks and contextual factors (e. g., autonomy at work) as moderators. The introduced model offers guidelines for future research and initial suggestions to foster trust-based MIS use.
