Abstract

This paper proposes a specific process-based approach to a systematic literature review to scope extant research on user behavior in cybersecurity. Focusing on the socio-rather than technical aspects of cybersecurity, and employing a 2016 lens robustly operationalised in a leading information systems journal in 2021, it aims to identify pertinent studies, identify a set of categories of behavioral concern, and propose a set of further studies to investigate these categories. Further, the study will identify user-focused behavioral themes of particular concern to organizations and users. At the conference, the paper seeks active discussion on a) the proposed literature bases, b) search terms and approach, and c) proposed research structure, to help refine and effect a robust study resulting in valuable insights on user behaviors that can impact effective cybersecurity.
