Additionally, the article Building a Culture of Security from the ISACA Journal 2019 states that “corporate culture is the key factor that determines the success or failure of an information security program” and that “corporate culture can be either an enabler or a barrier for information security, depending on how well it aligns with the information security objectives, values, and practices of the organization” (p. 1), , , , , , , ]
