Abstract
Since the importance of information security and its severe impacts on organizations, the improvements of information security controls as well as managements are crucial for all organizations. For the information security management, ISO 27001 is the most important standards and it plays an important role while the organizations are considering strengthening their security management. However, there are scanty of academic researches focus on the ISO 27001 issues and nearly no researches were studying the adoption intentions of ISO 27001. Therefore we develop the research model from two theories, and the hypothesized research model is tested using empirically data collect from 52 organizations in Taiwan. The results suggest that complexity and institutional influences have a strong impact on the adoption intention of ISO 27001. This study provides several implications on both academic and practical. It also extended the empirical literature of institutional and innovation diffusion studies to the area of information security.
