Abstract

Is collective agency important for information security management? Drawing on social cognitive theory, this paper proposes four efficacy-shaping factors as antecedents of workgroup collective efficacy and examines its influence on workgroup information security effectiveness. For empirical analysis, a structural model is proposed with theoretical support. 306 individual responses were collected from 33 branch offices of a law enforcement organization in South Korea. Our results support the focal hypotheses that workgroup collective efficacy has significant positive relationships with its antecedents as well as workgroup information security effectiveness. This indicates that the exercise of collective agency is important in enhancing information security effectiveness in organizations. Further theoretical and practical implications will be discussed.
