Full text linkThe Influence of organizational injustice in the motivation for the practice of cybercrimes
Full text linkEsta pesquisa analisou como a percepção de injustiça organizacional motiva a prática de crimes cibernéticos no local de trabalho. Em uma investigação qualitativa e exploratória, foram realizadas entrevistas com 16 especialistas em segurança cibernética. Os dados foram analisados através da técnica de análise de conteúdo categorial. Os resultados sugerem que a percepção de injustiça produz sentimentos negativos como a baixa-estima, a frustração e a ausência de culpa, e que essas emoções motivam a prática de crimes cibernéticos. Diferentes percepções identificadas entre os entrevistados deste estudo, associadas à revisão da literatura referente ao tema, permitiram a proposição de um modelo conceitual.This research analyzes how the perception of organizational injustice motivates the practice of cybercrimes in the workplace. In a qualitative and exploratory investigation, interviews have been carried out for 16 specialists in cybernetic security. Data were analyzed through the categorical content analysis technique. The results obtained suggest that the perception of injustice produces negative feelings, such as low self-esteem, frustration, and lack of guilt, and these emotions, in turn, motivate the practice of cybercrimes. Different perceptions have been identified among the interviewees of this study, which are associated with the literature review related to the theme, allowed the proposition of a conceptual model

Innovation system in air transport management
Full text linkIdentifying previous research subjects on innovation management in air transport provides not only updated references on new technologies in this industry, but also indicates which areas need to be prioritized in future research. A systematic literature review of publications in this field over the past decade, from 2005 to 2015, including 2016 publications in progress, was carried out, adopting as a control document the proceedings from the 19th ATRS World Conference, held in Singapore in 2015. The searches were done on ScienceDirect and included reports from over 2,500 journals. The abstracts, titles, and keywords were considered, and Boolean connectors were used. The term “innovation” was combined with at least one of eight different strings: air* (e.g., airport, airline, and aircraft), flight, transport, aviation, carrier, lcc, fsc and seat, which were identified as the terms with the highest frequency of incidence in the 129 files in the control document. From the 731 articles identified and analyzed, 92 were considered as directly related to innovation management in air transport. The results showed that the areas with a higher incidence of studies were the aircraft industry (energy efficiency, industrial process, and noise and pollutant emission reduction), airlines (business model, IT and planning and management), policies (sustainable transport, incentive mechanisms and societal aspirations), and airport (services, security, self-financing and air traffic control and projects). From this review, it was determined that, in addition to the limited studies on this subject, there is also a lack of research on innovations in airport structure, such as runway pavements and the optimization of airport sites, as well as on new forms of disposal of wastes generated during the flight, crew training and integrated innovation planning in the sector. These can direct future studies on the subject in the four application areas identified and promote the development of an integrated innovation system in air transport management
Multicriteria analysis of the compliance for the improvement of information security
Full text linkInformation security is a current issue of protection of information assets that considers significant variables of a strategic, organizational and IT governance nature, and that requires to analyze the compliance with international standards that regulate business actions. In this way, the work analyzes institutional compliance to improve information security applying the Analytic Hierarchy Process methodology to the specific practices defined in ISO/IEC 27002:2013. Expert Choice has been used as Decision Support Systems that has generated as a result the ranking of priorities of the criteria and alternatives used in the decisional process. It has been later applied in a medium-sized Brazilian industrial company. The results identify that the main security practice is the one related to the independent critical analysis of information security
A comparison of hedonic and utilitarian digital products based on consumer evaluation and technology frustration
Full text linkThis study explores how hedonic mobile applications (apps) compare to utilitarian apps in consumer evaluation. We posit that achieving a set of passionate consumers is a pre-cursor to product success in markets, whereas technology frustration is a negative hindrance to the product success. Also, we argue that technology frustration may act as a negative complementing factor to consumer passion, and this effect is higher for hedonic products than utilitarian products. We contextualize our study to the android apps, and used a dataset that tracked 19,121 apps in the android market for three months and coded our variables from this dataset. We conducted empirical analysis and found support for our hypotheses. This study contributes to the information systems and marketing literature in providing a new dimension associated with consumer evaluation of digital products, and draws evaluative comparisons between hedonic and utilitarian digital products
