Adoption of security as a service
Security as a Service systems enable new opportunities to compose security infrastructures for information systems. However, to date there are no holistic insights about their adoption and relevant predictors. Based on existing technology acceptance models we developed an extended application-specific research model including formative and reflective measures. The model was estimated applying the Partial Least Squares technique to address the prediction-oriented nature of the study. A subsequent online survey revealed that a large number of industries shows significant and steadily growing interest in Security as a Service. Adoption drivers were investigated systematically.
