摘要

随着社会对信息隐私和数据保护的日益重视,组织越来越多地采用隐私增强技术(pet)来保护其利益相关者的个人信息。消费者意识的增强和政府出台旨在保护个人数据的法规推动了这一趋势。通过实现pet,组织可以确保遵守隐私法规并与客户建立信任。本研究旨在加深对中小企业(SMEs)采用隐私增强技术(PET)的决定因素及其对其绩效的影响的理解。它侧重于技术-组织-环境(TOE)模型、管理准备、公司规模、行业部门和采用PET作为PET采用的潜在驱动因素的意图。通过对202家加拿大中小企业的大规模调查,本研究评估了意向在TOE模型、管理准备和市场绩效之间的中介作用。本研究的结果有助于中小企业采用PET的研究,并为组织和管理者有效地采用PET提供见解。研究结果表明,技术准备、环境准备、组织准备和管理准备对采用pet的意愿有正向影响。此外,采用pet的意向与公司绩效呈正相关。研究结果还表明,采用pet的意向完全中介了准备度四个维度与企业绩效之间的关系。这些发现强调了准备程度和意愿在采用pet及其对公司绩效的影响中所起的重要作用。本研究还发现,企业规模调节了技术准备和组织准备与采用pet的意愿之间的关系,以及环境准备和管理准备与采用pet的意愿之间的关系。该研究确定了影响PET采用的五大因素:网络安全意识、感知成本、易用性、感知收益和IT基础设施。研究结果表明,技术准备是四个维度中影响最大的,其次是组织、环境和管理因素。这项研究提出了中小企业在决定使用PET技术时进行评估的关键考虑因素,因为它与从业者有关。

Privacy enhancing technology adoption and its impact on SMEs’ performance
As society places greater emphasis on information privacy and data protection, organizations are increasingly adopting Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) to safeguard the personal information of their stakeholders. This trend is fueled by growing consumer awareness and the introduction of government regulations aimed at protecting personal data. By implementing PETs, organizations can ensure compliance with privacy regulations and establish trust with their customers. This study aims to deepen the understanding of the determinants of Privacy Enhancing Technology (PET) adoption in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and its impact on their performance. It focuses on the technology-organization-environment (TOE) model, managerial readiness, firm size, industry sector, and intent to adopt PETs as potential drivers of PET adoption. By using a large-scale survey of 202 Canadian SMEs, the study evaluates the mediating role of intent in the relationship between the TOE model, managerial readiness, and market performance. The results of this study contribute to the growing body of research on PET adoption in SMEs and provide insights for organizations and managers to effectively adopt PETs. The results of this study indicate that technological, environmental, organizational, and managerial readiness have a positive effect on the intention to adopt PETs. Additionally, the intention to adopt PETs was found to have a positive relationship with firm performance. The findings also reveal that the intention to adopt PETs fully mediates the relationship between the four dimensions of readiness and firm performance. These findings highlight the important role that readiness and intention play in the adoption of PETs and its impact on firm performance. This study also found that firm size moderates the relationship between technological and organizational readiness with intention to adopt PETs, as well as the relationship between environmental and managerial readiness with intention to adopt PETs. The study identified the top five factors affecting PET adoption as cybersecurity awareness, perceived cost of adoption, ease of use, perceived benefits, and IT infrastructure. The findings suggest that technological readiness is the most influential of the four dimensions, followed by organizational, environmental, and managerial factors. This study presents crucial considerations for SMEs to evaluate when deciding on the use of PET technologies, as it pertains to practitioners.
