Information security breaches threaten Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability (CIA) of the organization. One of the leading threats in information security is social engineering attack (SEA). SEA is defined as "the act of manipulating and deceiving human beings, mostly with the use of psychological persuasion, to obtain access to confidential information". SEA is one of the common attacks that use human weakness in the organizations' information security chain. Therefore, it is important to consider the "human" element to ensure organizations' security. This research aims to investigate individual and organizational factors that motivate the intention of the employees toward social engineering resistance. The research model developed based on the most important behavioral theory and the primary theory in this study domain which is theory of planned behavior (TPB). Beside that, protection motivation theory (PMT), transformational leadership (TL), and organizational culture (OC) along with external constructs are used in the model development. The study followed a quantitative approach which distributed to 410 employees among various organizations in Oman. IBM SPSS and SEM techniques used for analyzing the collected data. The results shows that attitude to resist SEA, information security policy, information security culture, information security awareness, normative beliefs, self-efficacy, and threat severity have a strong direct association with intention to resist SEA. Which in turn represent 65.1% of total variance. However, trust, threat vulnerability, security education, training and awareness (SETA) program, and leadership did not show any significant relation toward intention against SEA prevention. The study provides insights to organizations to understand their employees' intention to resist SEA thus, improve their behavior by providing more training to avoid any breaches or further impact from such threat. The findings also indicate that management should focus more in individual factors to protect the corporate from risks.
