Abstract:	Information security awareness is a continuous effort to raise attention to information security and its importance, in order to stimulate securityoriented behaviors. Despite the increasing interest of researchers on the topic and the continuous notifications of global security surveys for its significance, awareness remains a critical issue of information security. Related approaches propose techniques and methods for promoting security without theoretical grounding and separately from the overall information security management framework. The aim of this paper is to suggest a theoretical and methodological framework which facilitates the analysis and understanding of the issues that are intertwined with awareness activities, in order to support the organization’s security management.
