dc.description.abstractProtecting organizational information assets is an important objective for most organizations. More than ever, information security is reliant on insiders with access to information in the course of their work. To help shed light on these insiders’ motivations to protect organizational information, this research integrates regulatory focus theory with rational choice theory. The result of these exploratory analyses indicates that promotion and prevention foci each distinctly relate to perceived costs and benefits of protecting organizational information assets. Additionally, the findings show that an expanded set of costs and benefits are mediated by the overall benefit of protecting. Ultimately, the model explains 57.1% of the variance in insiders’ intentions to protect organizational information assets.
