Item Restricted PREDICTORS OF CYBERSECURITY KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE, AND BEHAVIOURS AMONG NURSES IN SAUDI ARABIA(Saudi Digital Library, 2025-05-21) Alanazi, Abdulhamid Khalifah; KHALIFAH, ANASAbstract Background: Cybersecurity is becoming increasingly critical in healthcare, as nurses frequently access sensitive patient data through electronic health records (EHRs) and other digital platforms. Despite this, gaps in nurses' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors (KAB) regarding cybersecurity pose risks to data security, especially in Saudi Arabia, where healthcare digitization is expanding rapidly. Research in this area remains limited. Aim: The aim of this study is to explore the predictors of cybersecurity knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors among nurses in Saudi Arabia. Methodology: This cross-sectional, descriptive correlational study was conducted in three hospitals in northern Saudi Arabia: King Khalid Hospital, Prince Abdulaziz Bin Musaed Hospital, and Qurayyat General Hospital. A total of 190 nurses were selected using a convenient sampling method, and then they were surveyed using the Human Aspects of Information Security Questionnaire (HAIS-Q) to assess their cybersecurity knowledge, attitude, and behavior (KAB). Sociodemographic, work-related, and organizational variables were analyzed using multiple regression to identify significant predictors of cybersecurity KAB16 0
