Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the challenges and solutions in securing Accounting Information Systems (AIS) amidst increasing cybersecurity threats, emphasizing the integration of technological, human, and organizational factors.


Research Design and Methodology: Utilizing a qualitative approach, the study employs case studies and expert interviews across various sectors. The research framework draws on the Technology-Organization-Environment (TOE) and Socio-Technical Systems (STS) theories to provide a comprehensive analysis of AIS security dynamics.


Findings and Discussion: The research identifies the growing sophistication of cyber threats, necessitating advanced technological solutions such as encryption, multi-factor authentication (MFA), and artificial intelligence (AI) for real-time threat detection. Despite these advancements, human factors like insufficient cybersecurity awareness and organizational factors such as inadequate security policies and investment remain significant vulnerabilities. The study highlights the critical role of a strong cybersecurity culture, effective governance, and regulatory compliance in enhancing AIS security. Empirical evidence supports the necessity of integrating these elements to mitigate cyber risks effectively.


Implications: The findings underscore the importance of a holistic approach to AIS cybersecurity, combining technological advancements with robust organizational practices and continuous training. Organizations are advised to foster a cybersecurity-conscious culture, develop clear policies, and ensure top management support to enhance their cybersecurity posture. These insights provide actionable recommendations for organizations aiming to protect their AIS against evolving cyber threats.
