Implementation Security and Privacy in the Era of Industry 4.0 to Protect Digital Attacks on Health Profession Students: SOAR Analysis

Abstract

Health Profession Students are Generation Z potential targets in today's digital world. However, in the era of Industry 4.0, technological developments also impact high risks to security and privacy. Therefore, efforts to increase digital security and privacy awareness are the top priorities to protect against digital attacks as a threat to students' health. This research aims to conduct data mapping precisely where students' online activities can be explored in detail so that the threat of digital attacks can be overcome with practical strategic steps using SOAR analysis. The research uses descriptive quantitative methods with a structured questionnaire survey approach and a sample of 372 university students with a health major. The results of the study show an overview of student activities in the digital world, namely the use of passwords on systems they do not know the validity of, low knowledge about the use of software as a two-step security tool, and students behave passively when they become victims of digital crime. Strategic steps in protecting against digital attacks include strengths, opportunities, aspirations, and results. This research offers a robust strategic basis for formulating a curriculum related to security and privacy awareness policies for students in overcoming digital threats in the industry 4.0 era and designing a program plan to engage students in digital literacy as agents of change actively. Future research should analyze Security and Privacy in Industry 4.0 to protect against digital attacks, expanding the sample to various Indonesian universities and study programs.
