Extending unified theory of acceptance and use of technology with ISO/IEC 27001 security standard to investigate factors influencing Bring Your Own Device adoption in South Africa
Background: As the use of mobile computing devices such as smartphones increase in developing countries, some employees in organisations prefer using their privately owned mobile devices for work purposes by following the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) practice. However, the actual factors that influe...
