Awareness is a starting point for employees to perform well within the organization because they can anticipate numerous problems or threats that might occurred, which often disrupt the flow of activity. At certain occasion, organization have been made guidelines and policy to help achieving the objectives and monitor the employee performances. However, the degree of successes cannot be guaranteed by them due to intervention, changes approach, realization, and constraint lead to certain employees do not comply respectively. Therefore, understanding what factors motivate employees in increasing their awareness of information security (IS) is important to help IS managers diagnose deficiencies in their IS management. It also can provide clear direction to align with training programs and workshop with organization requirement. Thus, this study wants to measure the role of individual antecedent in influencing IS awareness using quantitative method by identifying several critical factors and its relationship. Meanwhile, this study uses one moderating factor namely intention comply, five exogenous constructs consist of selfattitude (AT), self-behaviour (BV), self-cognitive (CT), self-motivation (SM), and self-responsibility (SR); and one endogenous construct namely Information Security Awareness (ISA). The results indicated two factors have significance influence to the outcome positively which are AT with t-value 1.671 (p=0.095) and CT with t value 2,264 (p=0.024) while IC as moderating factor have significant influence to BV, CT, SM, and SR positively and AT negatively as exogenous constructs.
