This research began with a review of the literature on information security and user satisfaction. The information security review identified the information security management concepts, practices and behavioral factors used to integrate information security and user satisfaction. The user satisfaction review generated three theories of motivation that use satisfaction as an exogenous variable (expectancy disconfirmation theory, needs theory, and equity theory) and as user satisfaction constructs and measurement items. The research model, hypotheses, and instrument were validated with data gathered from academics, information security specialists, researchers, and information systems corporate users. An instrument was developed based on this model. A survey was conducted, and 173 valid responses were obtained. Structural equation modeling was used for the data analysis. The results indicated that users understand the benefits of information security practices, but the use of information systems with security controls is considered a complex matter, which reduces information systems productivity.
