Abstract

ABSTRACT In this article, we develop a three-stage study to examine the role of an e-mail authentication and identification service (eATS) intervention in affecting end-user e-mail risk perceptions. We deploy the eATS and find that it reduces users’ risk perception. Pre-intervention risk perception is found to be positively associated with user perception of the e-authentication service’s usefulness. Moreover, perceived usefulness of the service negatively relates to e-mail risk perception in the post-use stage. Finally, privacy concerns related to the e-authentication service dilute this relationship between usefulness of service and e-mail risk perception reduction.

电子认证服务作为电子邮件风险感知干预的研究

在本文中，我们开展了一项分三个阶段的研究，以检验电子邮件认证和识别服务(eATS)干预在影响最终用户电子邮件风险感知方面的作用。我们部署了eATS，发现它降低了用户的风险感知。干预前风险感知与用户对电子认证服务有用性的感知呈正相关。此外，服务的感知有用性与使用后阶段的电子邮件风险感知负相关。最后，与电子认证服务相关的隐私问题削弱了服务有用性与降低电子邮件风险感知之间的关系。

期刊介绍： As information technology and the Internet become more and more ubiquitous and pervasive in our daily lives, there is an essential need for a more thorough understanding of information security and privacy issues and concerns. The International Journal of Information Security and Privacy (IJISP) creates and fosters a forum where research in the theory and practice of information security and privacy is advanced. IJISP publishes high quality papers dealing with a wide range of issues, ranging from technical, legal, regulatory, organizational, managerial, cultural, ethical and human aspects of information security and privacy, through a balanced mix of theoretical and empirical research articles, case studies, book reviews, tutorials, and editorials. This journal encourages submission of manuscripts that present research frameworks, methods, methodologies, theory development and validation, case studies, simulation results and analysis, technological architectures, infrastructure issues in design, and implementation and maintenance of secure and privacy preserving initiatives.
