Abstract

In the Information security domain the theory of social engineering attacking risk factors is in Social Engineering (SoE)attacks that has an impact which would be disturbed the personal productivity of higher learning institute. The dependent variable which are threat, vulnerability, digital evidence awareness factors and one independent variable that is personal disturbance factors is used in this paper. Moreover, using as an indicator in determining disturbance of personal productivity in higher learning institute. Since multiple regression by Partial least square (PLS-SEM) is use to examined the collection of data by a questionnaire which is relevant with Social Engineering (SoE) attacking risks. And the resulting point out three dependent variables significantly influences on the independent variable of personal productivity in higher learning institute. As a matter of fact, this study concludes that the foremost influence factor on disturbance of personal productivity in higher learning institute towards the Social Engineering (SoE) attacking risk factors such as threat, vulnerability, digital evidence awareness factors. This study contributes to introductory study but vibrant understanding in stimulating the higher learning institute to become a worldwide institution
