总结: | Information Security Awareness (ISA) is significant for better security behavior. Students may have different level of
awareness for security vulnerabilities based on their knowledge, behavior and culture. In Saudi Arabia, studies showed that
employees are less aware to security risks due to lack of knowledge. This paper presents students’ security knowledge and
awareness among students of Technical and Vocational Training Corporation (TVTC) regarding security vulnerabilities
particularly those that are personally related to them such as risks of guessable passwords, email attachments, junk email,
pirated software and hacking. This paper surveyed 352 students from this corporation in Riyadh- Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The results showed there are different levels of knowledge among students regarding security threats. |
