Abstract

The advancement of computer and Internet technologies have brought teaching and learning activities to a new dimension. Learners were virtually moved out from their classrooms to a new learning environment where learning contents and materials were delivered electronically. This new environment, which is called e-learning environment uses the web and other Internet technologies to enhance teaching and learning experience. The success and failure of any e-learning system fall on how secure the system is. Security of an e-learning system is very important so that the information contained in the system is not compromised. However no matter how secure an elearning system is the security threats always fall on human factor. Human is identified as the weakest link in information security and lack of security awareness such as password sharing will compromise the security of e-learning system. This paper studies the awareness level in information security among elearning users, particularly students at Higher Education Institution. The study focuses on evaluating awareness level, perception and behavior of e-learning users from International Islamic University Malaysia. Results of this study helps the university authority in preparing effective and specific awareness program in e-learning security for their students.
