Abstract

The effect of information security on the e-supply chain attracted attention to investigate its relationship with the mediating role of supply chain risk in the logistics and distribution industry in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The proposed research explored the mediating effect of supply chain risk in the logistics and distribution industry, providing unique insights for future research, literature, and targeted sectors. A descriptive, causal and analytical design with quantitative research technique was applied to the proposed research model. A sample of 301 respondents from the managerial departments of 176 logistics and distribution companies in Dubai and Abu Dhabi was used to assess the research variables. The findings revealed that the impact of information systems was positively associated with the e-supply chain, while the indirect impact of supply chain risk significantly positively impacted the e-supply chain. The research is limited to assessing the supply chain risk as an intermediary. For future research, exploring the SC risk prevention strategies' impact on the E-supply chain is recommended. Research findings are anticipated to assist communities of practice in making better information security decisions in the context of e-supply chain by clearly implementing information security policies internally and externally to enhance e-supply chain performance and SC risk management.

信息安全对阿联酋物流配送行业电子供应链的影响

信息安全对电子供应链的影响引起了人们的关注，研究其与阿联酋物流和分销行业供应链风险的中介作用的关系。本研究探讨了供应链风险在物流配送行业中的中介作用，为未来的研究、文献和目标行业提供了独特的见解。采用描述性、因果性和定量研究技术的分析设计来建立研究模型。来自迪拜和阿布扎比176家物流和分销公司管理部门的301名受访者被用来评估研究变量。研究发现，信息系统的影响与电子供应链呈正相关，而供应链风险的间接影响显著正向影响电子供应链。研究仅限于作为中介的供应链风险评估。对于未来的研究，建议探讨供应链风险防范策略对电子供应链的影响。研究结果有望帮助实践社区在电子供应链背景下制定更好的信息安全决策，通过明确内部和外部实施信息安全政策来提高电子供应链绩效和供应链风险管理。

期刊介绍： Supply chain management (SCM) plays an essential role in managing the movement of raw materials into an organization, certain issues of the internal processing of materials into finished goods, and the movement of finished products out of the organization for end-consumer delivery. The goal of SCM is to improve trust and collaboration among supply chain partners and to improve inventory visibility. However, many SCM problems deal with uncertain events such as uncertainty in demand, supply, quality, price, etc. This forum is dedicated to all scholars who wish to share their ideas about uncertainty in SCM problems. Uncertain supply chain management is a quarterly publication dedicated to all scientists in all over the world who wish to share their experiences and knowledge in this field. Our policy is to perform a peer review on all submitted articles and publishes original and high quality articles.
