Abstract

This chapter aims to present the influences of cyber-security on user experience in relation to the smart technology acceptance in the Horn of Africa region. Following the research and with respondents equal to 390, the KMO measure was used to determine the fitness of the data for conducting the factor analysis manifesting a KMO value that would justify the sample. With regards to the user experience related constructs, cyber-security awareness, and technology trust, the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) was performed to confirm these measures. Findings manifested better cyber security perception encourages and enhances the user experience and finally, smart technology acceptance. To achieve both a confident and higher level of adoption, the chapter raises the need to adopt the user-centered design alongside the security design. In this sense, this research adds the value for policymakers, technologists, and educators in the Horn of Africa because this research provides insights based on the analysis of cultural and socio-economic characteristics of target users.
