Abstract
The study that is reported here investigated password security and related issues at a South African tertiary institution. The main reason was to investigate why password security is such a problem for students. This was because students fell victim to people using their Internet identification to send nasty e-Mail, to visit pornographic websites, etc. The study used a questionnaire and IS&T students at the University of KwaZulu-Natal as respondents. The data shows that more than 60% of the students surveyed actively use passwords to protect their data and account security while 36% just used passwords when required by regulations. The researchers’ primary recommendation is that tertiary institutions should rigorously enforce security regulations.
