Abstract

Information systems (IS) have become an integral part of many organizations as they depend on it to execute their critical business function. The purpose of this research was to explore the enablers and inhibitors of information systems disaster recovery planning in organizations in the Ghanaian banking sector. In order to achieve this purpose, the protection motivation theory and the theory of planned behavior was used as the theoretical lens for this study. Eight hypotheses were developed to test the research conceptualization. Data analysis was performed using SPSS version 20.0. Using a survey of 207 managers in the Ghanaian banking sector, this article shows the factors such as perceived vulnerability, perceived severity, response efficacy, self-efficacy, attitude, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control positively influences motivation and intention to develop an information systems disaster recovery plan in Ghanaian banking industries.
