Description
Summary:Corruption is one of the crimes that are cyber-enabled. Companies particularly have become the target for this cyber-enabled crime, i.e. cyber-corruption. As a matter of fact, companies are struggling on how to deal with corruptions in this digital environment. However, our reading of the literature indicates that too little empirical evidence study on incorporate anti-corruption measures in relations with digital environment. Largely literature investigate perception indexes, assessment and causal effect of conventional corruption from the perspective of economic, social and politics. Thus, the issue of how to mitigate corruptions in the digital age, warranting greater attention. It is imperative for study to focus on mitigating corruption risk management as anticorruption preventive measures. Using a qualitative methodology, i.e. gioia method, this study developed a model countering corruption with corruption risk management adopting the digital environment, focusing on cyber securities perspective in order to curb cyber menace. This study postulates that a corruption risk management model adaptable to cyber security measure, would be timely as it will act as controlling mechanism to prevent corruption, particularly in the digital environment. The model highlights the importance element of Corruption Governance System (CGS). Based on the findings, the CGS comprises of three focus areas: structure, process and people. All the three areas are interdependent and mutually reciprocal. Data indicates that CRM structure consists of prevention and detection. Without the two components, process of CRM could not be feasible. The findings are relevant to the National Anti-Corruption Plan. The Corruption Risk Management model adapted to prevention against cyber-crime is a step forward to prevent the worst and initiated measure in tandem with building the nation towards higher income and better lives.
