DOES KNOWING THE RISK IMPACT ON WEB 2.0 USAGE AND SECURITY PRACTICES OF ONLINE USERS? Riaan J Rudman Significant
changes have taken place on the Internet in recent years. The most
prominent is the introduction of Web 2.0. This study investigates
the usage patterns, and awareness levels of the risks and controls
associated with Web 2.0 by educated and uneducated users. Accounting
students are taught about the risks and controls of Web 2.0 as part
of their studies, whereas Business Strategy students’ exposure is
limited to popular media and their own research. Contrary to
expectation, it appears that being formally educated on Web 2.0 does
not have a greater impact on user behaviour than popular media. |
