Abstract

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are increasingly becoming targets of cyber-attacks due to their limited resources and inadequate cyber security practices. Knowledge sharing is crucial in enhancing cyber security practices among SMEs. This study investigates the effects of different knowledge-sharing methods on cyber security practices in SMEs. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, including surveys and interviews with SMEs in North Sulawesi. The results suggest that both formal and informal knowledge-sharing methods positively influence cybersecurity practices in SMEs. Formal methods, such as training sessions and workshops, are effective in improving cyber security awareness and knowledge, while informal methods, such as peer-to-peer sharing and mentoring, promote the adoption of cyber security best practices in SMEs. The study also identifies challenges and barriers to knowledge sharing and provides recommendations for enhancing knowledge sharing and cyber security practices in SMEs. Overall, this study highlights the importance of knowledge sharing in promoting cyber security practices in SMEs and provides insights for improving cyber security in this sector.
