This study developed the concept of proactive information security behavior and examined its connections with individual creativity and two organizational context factors: human relations culture (values and beliefs that promote participation and autonomy in decision-making) and IT use governance. Reliability and validity of this construct were tested with survey data. Findings of this study support its positive relationship with individual creativity, human relations culture, and IT use governance, and show partial mediation effects of individual creativity on the relationships between human relations culture and IT use governance, and proactive information security behavior. Theoretical and practice implications are discussed.

这项研究提出了主动信息安全行为的概念，并检验了它与个人创造力和两个组织环境因素的联系：人际关系文化（促进参与和自主决策的价值观和信念）和 IT 使用治理。使用调查数据测试了该结构的可靠性和有效性。本研究结果支持其与个人创造力、人际关系文化和 IT 使用治理之间的正相关关系，并表明个人创造力对人际关系文化与 IT 使用治理之间的关系以及主动信息安全行为具有部分中介作用。讨论了理论和实践意义。
