This paper investigates the perceived security threats to computerized accounting information systems (CAIS) in the Egyptian banking industry (EBI) by surveying the entire population of the EBI. Differences between the respondents' opinions regarding the perceived security threats have been identified and investigated in the context of the EBI. The results of the study reveal that accidental entry of bad data by employees, accidental destruction of data by employees, introduction of computer viruses to the system, natural and human-made disasters, employees' sharing of passwords, and misdirecting prints and distributing information to unauthorized people are the most significant perceived security threats to CAIS in the EBI. In all cases, the heads of internal audit departments reported higher occurrence frequencies of CAIS security threats compared to the heads of computer departments.

Aim/Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the interrelationship among the quality measures of information system success, including system quality, information, quality, and service quality, that eventually influence accounting information systems effectiveness. Background: It is generally believed that investment in an information system offers opportunities to organizations for business process efficiency and effectiveness. Despite huge investments in accounting information systems, banks in Nigeria have not realized the full potential benefits of using these systems because of persistent failures. Few studies have been conducted to address the problem. Methodology: A survey research design was used to collect data, and a total of 287 questionnaires were retrieved from respondents in the Nigerian banking sector. Contribution: This study contributes to the understanding of the most important antecedent factors of the quality measures, the interrelationship among the quality measures, and the influence of these measures on the accounting information systems effectiveness. Findings: The result of the study revealed that security, ease of use, and efficiency are key features of system quality, while the information quality dimension includes accuracy, timeliness, and completeness. The result of the study further revealed that information quality and system quality have significant influences on accounting information systems effectiveness. Recommendations for Practitioners: This study provides practitioners with important measures for evaluation of AIS effectiveness in the context of Nigerian banks. Recommendation for Researchers: Future researchers may build on the findings of current study to conduct fur-ther research in the area of AIS effectiveness in different contexts. Future Research: This study examines only three quality measures of Delone and Mclean model and antecedents of information and system quality measures, neglecting contingency factor. Therefore, future study should include other factors to the AIS effectiveness model to help in developing more specific theory in AIS domain.

This study aims to examine the effect of organizational commitment on the success of accounting information systems (AIS). The unit of analysis in this study was Regional Development Banks (Indonesian: Bank Pembangunan Daerah / BPD) throughout Indonesia. Data collected by using a questionnaire. The respondents were BPD employees as the AIS users. The total research sample used was 275, while the questionnaire return rate was 64% (176). The data were processed and analyzed using the Partial Least Square SEM method. The results proved that organizational commitment has no effect on the success of accounting information system. In general, BPD employees’ commitment to the organization is at the “adequate” level, which means that they are not fully committed to supporting the success of the accounting information system. The results of this study do not support the theory and results of previous studies which state that organizational commitment affects the success of the accounting information systems.
