摘要

本研究着眼于用户参与对用户信息安全实践的影响。一个描述用户参与(用户帖子)如何影响一个人决定采用更好的安全措施(更强的密码)的模型进行了测试。密码强度是通过查看密码长度、使用的字符类型、使用的字符序列的种类、重复密码的数量和不可破解密码的数量来确定的。密码测试使用了各种破解技术。这项研究发现，在一个在线游戏网站上，在用户论坛上发表更多帖子的人使用的密码更强。

Valuing Information Security: A Look at the Influence of User Engagement on Information Security Strength

ABSTRACT This study looks at the influence of user engagement on users’ information security practices. A model describing how user engagement (user posts) may influence a person’s decision to employ better security measures (stronger passwords) is tested. Password strength was determined by looking at password length, the types of characters used, the variety of character sequences used, the number of duplicate passwords, and the number of uncrackable passwords. Passwords were tested using a variety of cracking techniques. This study found that individuals from an online gaming site who made more posts to the user forum employed stronger passwords.

期刊介绍： As information technology and the Internet become more and more ubiquitous and pervasive in our daily lives, there is an essential need for a more thorough understanding of information security and privacy issues and concerns. The International Journal of Information Security and Privacy (IJISP) creates and fosters a forum where research in the theory and practice of information security and privacy is advanced. IJISP publishes high quality papers dealing with a wide range of issues, ranging from technical, legal, regulatory, organizational, managerial, cultural, ethical and human aspects of information security and privacy, through a balanced mix of theoretical and empirical research articles, case studies, book reviews, tutorials, and editorials. This journal encourages submission of manuscripts that present research frameworks, methods, methodologies, theory development and validation, case studies, simulation results and analysis, technological architectures, infrastructure issues in design, and implementation and maintenance of secure and privacy preserving initiatives.
