Literature Review - A Study on Impact of Cyber Security on Organisation Culture and Structure with Reference to Public Sector Bank
Abstract
The rapid advancement of digital technologies has significantly increased cyber-security risks across all sectors, compelling organisations to strengthen their security frameworks. In public sector banks, where large volumes of sensitive financial data are managed, cyber-security has become a critical determinant shaping organisational culture and structure. This literature review examines existing research on the impact of cyber-security practices on organisational culture and structure, with specific reference to public sector banks. Findings from prior studies indicate that cyber-security initiatives influence employee behaviour, awareness levels, communication patterns, and the overall risk culture within organisations. Strengthened security protocols often lead to more formal, compliance-driven cultures, as well as structural adjustments such as specialised cyber-security units, hierarchical decision-making processes, and redesigned reporting mechanisms. The review also highlights that while robust cyber-security enhances trust, accountability, and operational resilience, it can also introduce challenges such as employee resistance, increased workload, and the need for continuous training. By synthesising key themes from the literature, this review underscores the evolving relationship between cyber-security, organisational culture, and structure in public sector banks, offering insights relevant for enhancing organisational effectiveness and security readiness.
