Abstract:
With the evolution of hardware and software that are affordable enough the focus drifted from
the protection ofcomputers processing information to information itself. This paper highlights
the need for Information Security Awareness educational programs to make the roots of
students stronger in terms of grasping the tactics of cyber-attacks. One should be aware ofthat
your data is the most valuable asset. The challenges oftoday include the threats and security
breaches while letting the information communicating unknowingly. This research examines
the model ofinformation security adapted from the Parkerian Hexad Model to further find out
components that are actually affecting the mind sets of people. It is commonly observed that
lacking of information protection leads to vulnerable effects. While the human are not aware
that they are being attacked. The approach is the usage of all the previous work done on this
model and further transforming into suggestions that will well answer today’s challenges of
information security.
