Abstract: This paper examines factors that significantly affect the use of cybersecurity culture by banks in Nigeria. One of these factors was the cybersecurity standard guidelines. This study adopted a quantitative approach to reaching its objectives by using questioner that provides a framework for building hypotheses. Fifty participants from different banks in Nigeria participated in the study. After reviewing several relevant studies, a five-point Likert scale questionnaire was designed to collect the required data, which was analyzed using SPSS. Hypotheses were tested to see which results could then be generalized. The result showed the regression coefficients of the variable cybersecurity standard guidelines explain (79.2%) of the variance in the culture of cybersecurity this interpretation is statistically significant at the level (0.05), and the table shows that the values of the regression coefficients were positive and statistically significant between the cybersecurity standard guidelines and culture of cybersecurity (β = 0.813; t = 26.356; p = 0.000); The square of the overall correlation coefficient R2 between cybersecurity standard guidelines and culture of cybersecurity was (0.792), which means that the independent variable affects 79.2% of the variance in the culture of cybersecurity as the dependent variable. Thus, we accept the H1 hypothesis. The researchers recommend the use of new variables and factors in studying the relationships that affect cybersecurity and studying the extent of culture that people have about this concept in different environments and countries, in addition to different sectors. Keywords: Cybersecurity Culture, Cybersecurity standard guidelines.
1. BACKGROUND Cybersecurity guidelines is the organization document usually drafted by chief cybersecurity officer of the organization to prevent or mitigate cybersecurity vulnerability (Yani, 2016; Lubua & Pretorius, 2019). The creation of cybersecurity culture will begin with the creation of the organization’s cybersecurity guidelines, followed by the creation of cybersecurity architecture and detailed cybersecurity blueprint (Liu et al., 2020). The organization cybersecurity effort can be succeeded only if it operate in conjunction with the organizational cybersecurity standard guidelines (Papazoglou 2019). Without cybersecurity standard guidelines, the organization will be unable to meet the cybersecurity needs of the various communities of interest including management from all communities, general staff and public users (Masrek et al., 2017). According to Nasir et al., (2020) organization with lack cybersecurity standard guidelines clearly shows that it lacking proper cybersecurity guidance, and showing a low level of senior management commitment to cybersecurity. Cybersecurity standard guidelines should be regularly reviewed at the organizational level to determine whether it satisfied cybersecurity needs and incorporated into the working environment so that it becomes a part of the individual's daily activities (Alshaikh, 2020 & Uchendu et al., 2021). The Individuals can use cybersecurity standard guidelines to learn about the acceptable level of cybersecurity behaviour required to keep personal data secure (Tolah et al., 2017) .
