ESTRADA-ESPONDA, Royer David; UNAS-GOMEZ, José Luis e FLOREZ-RINCON, Oleskyenio Enrique. Information Security Practices in Times of Pandemic. Case Universidad del Valle, Tuluá campus. Rev. logos cienc. tecnol. [online]. 2021, vol.13, n.3, pp.98-110. Epub 29-Nov-2021. ISSN 2145-594X. https://doi.org/10.22335/rlct.v13i3.1446.
The pandemic generated by COVID-19 implied massive confinement strategies as an emergency public response within the framework of the police law to combat the level of contagion. Additionally, this situation implied changing the different forms of social interaction such as education, health care and employment. In a directly proportional way, crime took advantage of the situation to intensify electronic crimes such as phishing, fake news and, in general, activities such as malware injection. The purpose of the research was to identify information security practices in a university community by means of a survey, under a mixed research approach that considered, among other variables, the pandemic as a precursor of new digital hygiene habits. Among the most representative results, it is highlighted that both professors and students have an acceptable knowledge of information security, despite not receiving significant training by governmental entities such as the National Police. Finally, it is concluded that institutional efforts to combat this type of crime have not been sufficient and therefore there is a lack of awareness strategies to promote better digital hygiene.
