- Modern organizations face significant information security violations from inside the organizations to which they respond with various managerial techniques. It is widely believed in IS security literature that enforcing IS security policy compliance on employees through various means is the solution for security effectiveness. Nevertheless, this manuscript challenges that notion and advances a stream of research that suggests increasing security measures may lead to decrease in user productivity, increased user mistrust in the IT department, increased user frustration, increased user technology avoidance, increased non-malicious volitional security violations and overall may lead to increased security risk, instead of decreasing it. This manuscript explores the how and the why of these mechanisms and suggests what to do about this phenomenon. Following a grounded theory methodology, this study develops the theory of Information System Security Menace (TISSM), a process model that explores the downsides of IS security measures.

- Internal crowdsourcing platforms, which enable firms to generate a large pool of ideas and connect employees to large number of colleagues, hold the potential to support employee innovation. Yet, managers face considerable difficulties when it comes to deploying such platforms in a way that generates business value. This article describes the eight years-long evolution of Allianz UK efforts to tap into its employees' ideas to drive innovation as a collective capacity. It identifies the challenges the firm faced with its internal crowdsourcing journey and describes the organizational design mechanisms adopted by leaders to address them. Our analysis reveals the necessity to adopt a configurational perspective among design elements to reinforce value creation. It details the design elements adopted by the firm to harness employee innovation and distills the lessons learned along the way.

Equipment-as-experience : A Heidegger-based position of information security
- 2016

Ingår i: Proceedings of the Thirty Seventh International Conference on Information Systems. - 9780996683135

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Information security (InfoSec) has ontologically been characterised as an order machine. The order machine connects with other machines through interrupting mechanisms. This way of portraying InfoSec focuses on the correct placement of machine entities to protect information assets. However, what is missing in this view is that for the InfoSec we experience in everyday practice, we are not just observers of the InfoSec phenomena but also active agents of it. To contribute to the quest, we draw on Heidegger's (1962) notion of equipment and propose the concept of equipment-as-experience to understand the ontological position of InfoSec in everyday practice. In this paper we show how equipment-as-experience provides a richer picture of InfoSec as being a fundamental sociotechnical phenomena. We further contend using an example case to illustrate that InfoSec equipment should not be understood merely by its properties (present-at-hand mode), but rather in ready-to-hand mode when put into practice.

Understanding the value of reputation systems in enterprise social media (ESM)-mutual influence between online and offline performance
- 2016
-
Ingår i: 2016 International Conference on Information Systems, ICIS 2016. - 9780996683135

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- One major concern that organizations face when deploying Enterprise Social Media (ESM) platforms is that of how to encourage employees' engagement within the system. Reputation systems that gamify the adoption process are incorporated into many ESM to inculcate employee engagement with the ESM. This study seeks to understand the dynamic between employees' online and offline performance by examining the research question: What are the impacts of reputation systems on the mutual influence between employees' online performances in ESM and their offline performances such as job performance? We take a performative view of online and offline identities and utilize "embodied entities" to connect the offline performance and online performance. The research will conduct a mixed-method case study to examine ESM and reputation system use in a large international organization. This RIP will present the motivations, theoretical framework, research model, and intended research design.

Understanding the value of reputation systems in enterprise social media (ESM) - The impact on ESM engagement behaviors
- 2016

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Enterprise Social Media (ESM) platforms have been gaining popularity in organizations in recent years. Despite the perceived value of these platforms, many ESM projects fail in their first six months because of the lack of employee engagement. Reputation systems, which track user behaviors within the ESM and assign the user a reputation score based upon a points system designated by the organization, have shown promise as a catalyst for greater employee engagement. This RIP seeks to understand the impact of the reputation systems on users' ESM engagement behaviors. More specifically, on the user side, we examine: How do employees' beliefs about online reputation in the reputation leaderboard influence employees' ESM engagement behaviors? On the artifact side, we investigate: How does the design of reputation systems influence employees' ESM engagement behaviors? We present the motivations, theoretical basis and research model, and the intended research design for the study.

Facebook Users Attitudes towards Secondary Use of Personal Information
- 2016
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the Thirty Seventh International Conference on Information Systems. - 9780996683135 ; , s. 1-15
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper reports on a study of how user attitudes to institutional privacy change after exposing users to potential inferences that can be made from information disclosed on Facebook. Two sets of focus group sessions with Facebook users were conducted. Three sessions were conducted by demonstrating to the users, on a general level, what can be inferred from posts using prototypical software called DataBait. Another set of three sessions let the users experience the potential inferences from their own actual Facebook profiles by using the DataBait tool. Findings suggest that the participants’ attitudes to secondary use of information changed from affective to cognitive when they were exposed to potential third-party inferences using their own actual personal information. This observation calls for more research into online tools that allow users to manage and educate themselves dynamically about their own disclosure practices.

User-generated content and employee creativity : Evidence from salesforce ideaexchange community
- 2016
-
Ingår i: 2016 International Conference on Information Systems, ICIS 2016. - 9780996683135

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study investigates how accessing user-generated content in online user innovation communities (OUICs) may influence employee creativity. By analyzing a longitudinal dataset obtained from the IdeaExchange community of Salesforce.com, we find that employees who frequently access diverse and well-codified idea content contributed by external product users are likely to generate more ideas than those who do not; however, the marginal effects of diverse and well-codified content decrease as employees access increasing amounts of community content. Moreover, our findings illustrate that the number of implemented ideas from an employee is positively associated with the number of new ideas s/he generates. We discuss important implications of our study for online innovation communities and for employee creativity in organizations. We also provide insights for firms on how to build a thriving community via increasing the scope and level of employee participation.
