  A number of determinants predict the adoption of Information Systems (IS)
security innovations. Amongst, perceived vulnerability of IS security threats
has been examined in a number of past explorations. In this research, we
examined the processes pursued in analysing the relationship between perceived
vulnerability of IS security threats and the adoption of IS security
innovations. The study uses Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to
evaluate the practice involved in examining perceived vulnerability on IS
security innovation adoption. The SLR findings revealed the appropriateness of
the existing empirical investigations of the relationship between perceived
vulnerability of IS security threats on IS security innovation adoption.
Furthermore, the SLR results confirmed that individuals who perceives
vulnerable to an IS security threat are more likely to engage in the adoption
an IS security innovation. In addition, the study validates the past studies on
the relationship between perceived vulnerability and IS security innovation
adoption.
