- Abstract
Computer and information security has become increasingly important on college and university campuses. Incidents of information security attacks, breaches, and threats and the costs associated with these incidents continue to be on the rise. The focus of this study was to examine the computer and information technology security training practices of colleges and universities in order to provide information that may help administrators reduce or eliminate potential information security attacks, breaches, and threats and provide a foundation for future research into these critical issues from the perspectives of IT personnel within institutions of higher education. Data were collected from 12 separate and distinct colleges and universities within the state of North Carolina. The findings offer insights to administrators and other interested persons regarding the training practices of computer and information security for faculty, staff, and students. The overall aim and intention of this article is to add to the existing knowledge of computer and information security training but more specifically dealing with institutions of higher education.
