Cybersecurity governance in the healthcare sector during digital transformation: an integrated model and hybrid analytical approach

The results showed that trust, exploitability, awareness, and certainty of punishment significantly impact security behavior during digital transformation. Privacy concerns and complexity were also found to significantly influence threat assessment and response evaluation. However, consistent with some studies in managed security environments, perceived vulnerability, perceived threat, and self-efficacy had no impact on security behavior. Finally, the study presents its theoretical and applied contributions and recommendations for future research.

Abstract

The results showed that trust, exploitability, awareness, and certainty of punishment significantly impact security behavior during digital transformation. Privacy concerns and complexity were also found to significantly influence threat assessment and response evaluation. However, consistent with some studies in managed security environments, perceived vulnerability, perceived threat, and self-efficacy had no impact on security behavior. Finally, the study presents its theoretical and applied contributions and recommendations for future research.
