Participants needed for a Study about Employees' CyberSecurity Behavior and Training

This is a cybersecurity behavior study sponsored by the National Science Foundation. We are conducting research to improve security behavior of employees in cyberspace through cybersecurity training. Non-IT employees (either full-time or part-time) are being recruited as participants in this study. Completing this study will require no more than two hours of your time. This study will take place in two steps.

 

1.     You will be contacted via email or phone to schedule an approximately 90-minute meeting with one of the members of the research team. During this meeting you will be asked to complete a pre-test online survey, study some e-learning materials about malware, and then complete a post-test online survey and a brief interview.

2.     After a month or so, you will be contacted via email to complete a follow-up online survey regarding your cyberseucirty behavior and beliefs. This survey takes 20 minutes or so to complete. And this will conclude your participation in the study.

 

Compensation

·                   You will receive up to $40 dollars Amazon gift-cards for your participation in the above two steps of the study.

·                   You will have the opportunity to enroll for a chance to win an iPad mini after you complete the entire study.

 

Contact

If interested, please email Dr. Wu He, Assistant Professor of Information Technology, at whe@odu.edu to set up an appointment. In your email, please indicate whether you are a full-time or part-time employee, the industry of your organization and your preferred days and time.
