Abstract : Information security policy compliance is crucial for safeguarding sensitive data in healthcare settings. This study investigates the factors influencing information security policy compliance behavior among healthcare workers at a private hospital in Mogadishu, Somalia. Findings reveal that beliefs in the importance of information security, effectiveness of communication and training programs, usability of security tools, and socio- cultural factors significantly impact compliance behavior. The study provides insights for healthcare administrators and policymakers to enhance compliance strategies in healthcare organizations.

Keywords : Information Security Policy Compliance; Healthcare Workers; Private Hospital.
