Tai Chinese Culture University ABSTRACT We have started with a questionnaire or methodology for the research. The focus is on information security awareness of organization staff, the research report if then written, making necessary recommendations and discussing the pros and cons of each. The six dependent variables of information security education are information security practice, risk assessment, code of practice for information security management, PDCA process model and controls. The twelve independent variables including (a)personnel information:Gender, age, education, rank and executive. (b)using computers status:Using computers in work, using computers at home, familiar with PC skills, mainframe practical experience, frequency of Internet connectivity and hours of connecting Internet a week, and (c) Internet shopping. There will be significantly explaining the variance in information security awareness. The researcher submitted the data for computer analysis using the SPSS for Windows software program. We will now discuss the results of these analyses and their interpretation. In particular, we will examine: the establishment of Cronbach’s alpha for the measures information security awareness, the frequency distribution of the variables, descriptive statistics such as the mean and the standard deviation, the Pearson correlation matrix, the results of hypotheses testing use of t-test and use of analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results of analysis of hypothesis-testing studies indicate that information security education:There are significant differences in the gender, age, familiar with PC skills and mainframe practical experience. On information security practice:There are significant difference in the gender, age, rank and familiar with PC skills. On risk assessment:There are significant difference in the education, rank, using computers in work, familiar with PC skills, frequency of Internet connectivity and Internet shopping. On code of practice for information security management:There are significant differences in the gender, familiar with PC skills, mainframe practical experience, frequency of Internet connectivity and Internet shopping. On PDCA process model:There are significant difference in the gender, age, using computers at home, familiar with PC skills, mainframe practical experience, frequency of Internet connectivity and Internet shopping. On controls:There are significant difference in the education, rank, executive, using computers in work, familiar with PC skills, frequency of Internet connectivity and hours of connecting Internet a week;But other is showing no reject. The Pearson’s correlation Coefficient(r) that indicates there are significant correlations between “Information Department and Audit Department matters because information security matter” and “Information Department matters because information security matter”. Both are significant correlation among education, rank, using computers in work, familiar with PC skills, frequency of Internet connectivity. “Information Department and Audit Department matters because information security matter” is significant correlation Internet shopping;But other are showing no correlation.
