Measurement of Information Security and Privacy Awareness in College Students after the Covid-19 Pandemic
Abstract
The Covid-19 pandemic has acted as a catalyst for digital transformation, particularly in the realm of education. Consequently, this research aims to ascertain the level of information security awareness among students employing the HAIS-Q. The study employs the MCDA method to determine the weighting of the three dimensions and seven focal areas that have been predetermined. The findings of the study reveal that the overall level of ISA among students falls within the "good" category (80%). The measurement results in this study can serve as valuable input for institutions to enhance information security awareness among their student populations.
