A new learner's security behavior model for m-learning in Malaysian higher education institution

The motivation to conduct this research came from the awareness that the mobile device exposes m-Learning to security threats and vulnerabilities. The most unfocused issues were the mobile security behavior on learners itself; despite statistically determined that the risks are developing each day o...
