Research on Configuration Effect of Social Context on the Susceptibility of Spear Phishing
In order to reduce the serious harm of harpoon phishing,this paper explores the susceptibility of harpoon phishing in Internet so-cial situations through the interaction of intentional situation induction and unintentional situation involvement.Based on the theory of interper-sonal deception,a configuration model is proposed to investigate the influence of social context on susceptibility to spear phishing.The model focuses on the interaction between intentional situational induction by anglers and unintentional situational involvement by anglers.Necessary condition analysis and qualitative comparative analysis are used to empirically test the research hypothesis.Empirical analysis has identified two types of susceptibility configurations for spear phishing,namely high information embedding induction by anglers,high preference match-ing induction,and high social information involvement configuration by anglers,as well as high information embedding induction by anglers,high trust induction,and high thematic involvement configuration by anglers.The research results extended the susceptibility of spear phishing from within the organization to outside the organization from a social context perspective,and combined with interpersonal deception from a configuration perspective,extended the influence of context on susceptibility to spear phishing from a one-way perspective to a two-way inter-action of intentional context induction and unintentional context involvement.This promoted the study of context that affects susceptibility to spear phishing and provided some reference for reducing susceptibility to spear phishing.
