Abstract
The zero-trust security model, based on the principle of “never trust, always verify,” challenges traditional security models and is particularly relevant in non-western cultural contexts. Existing research on zero trust (zt) adoption often overlooks the influence of security, national, and organizational cultural factors. No single model comprehensively incorporates these cultural aspects. Additionally, there is a lack of studies on information security culture and zt adoption within the uae, leaving a gap in understanding these cultural dimensions.This thesis investigates the correlation between information security, national, and organizational culture and the adoption of the zero-trust model, focusing on the uae. It constructs a theoretical model based on common information security culture factors and zero trust adoption in the arab cultural context, using data from a survey of 98 cybersecurity experts in the uae. Using partial least squares structural equation modelling (pls-sem), the study tests hypotheses to determine the correlation between information security culture factors and zt adoption
