Abstract: Based on the upper echelons theory and the neo-institutional theory, this paper explored the relationship between top management support, institutionalization, and information security performance. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 148 enterprises which had passed the certification of information security management system ISO/IEC 27001, and Smart PLS 3.0 and Bootstrap method of SPSS 22.0 were used for statistical analysis and mediation effect test. The results show that top management support has a positive effect on information security performance, identification, implementation, and internalization while identification and implementation have a positive effect on information security performance. In addition, top management support affects information security performance via the mediating effect of identification and implementation. The findings have important management implications for enterprises on the promotion of the process of information security institutionalization with the  top management support and the improvement of information security performance via institutionalization.

摘要: 基于高阶理论和新制度理论探讨了高管支持、制度化过程(包括识别、履行和内化3个维度)与信息安全绩效之间的关系。以国内通过信息安全管理体系认证(ISO/IEC 27001)的148家企业为调研对象开展问卷调查,采用Smart PLS 3.0SPSS 22.0Process插件进行统计分析和中介效应检验。结果表明,高管支持对信息安全绩效以及制度化过程的识别、履行和内化有显著正向影响;识别和履行对信息安全绩效有显著正向影响,并且在高管支持与信息安全绩效关系中起多重中介效应。研究结论对企业如何借助高管支持来推动信息安全制度化过程,进而提高企业信息安全绩效有重要管理启示。
