<p class="MsoNormal">Call for Papers: Mini-Track: Behavioral Issues in Information Security<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The co-chairs of the Behavioral Issues in Information Security minitrack would like to invite the submission of manuscripts to the 21<sup>st</sup> Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2015), which will be held at the El Conquistador
Resort in Puerto Rico from August 13-15, 2015.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The theme for AMCIS 2015 is Blue Ocean IS Research, which encourages novel approaches to investigating IS phenomena. Individuals who work within organizations have long been tasked with securing information that resides on or is transmitted
using rapidly-changing technologies and platforms, with varying degrees of success. Given that the human element is generally considered to be the weak point in any information security program, can innovative “blue ocean” research help aid our understanding
how individuals can avoid becoming a security vulnerability to their organization? We encourage researchers who are interested in individuals’ security behaviors within the changing IS landscape to submit their work to this minitrack.
<o:p></o:p></p>
