Attacks against OSN users exploit not only system vulnerabilities but also user-induced vulnerabilities, which naturally affect the hacker's attack strategy as well. This study is designed to investigate the effect of social media user behaviors on their vulnerability level in terms of security and privacy. The study was conducted survey methods, which was applied to social media users in two countries - Turkey and Iraq. This study documents and analyzes the behaviors of 700 OSN users in two countries. This study examines the behaviors of social media users from two nationalities, investigating whether there is a relationship between social media users' behaviors and security and privacy threats. Research findings demonstrate that there is a significant relationship between OSN users' behaviors and their attitudes towards security and privacy.

Design/methodology/approach In this research, the effects of environmental factors on employees' perceptual evaluations in open-plan offices at the Golbasi Region of Ankara were measured with a detailed questionnaire. The research data were obtained from 81 employees who agreed to fill out the questionnaire and who use open-plan offices. Findings It was found that the office environments with 1.65 m workstation partition heights were more favorably assessed for each of the items of planning and of privacy that form the dependent variables compared to the office environments with 1.10 and 1.40 m partition heights. On the other hand, the office environments with the 1.10 and 1.40 m partition heights were more favorable for lighting items than the 1.65 m partition height office environments. In addition, young employees had a more positive tendency toward the perceptions of environmental factors, including different workstation partition heights in open-plan offices, compared to older employees. Originality/value The significant contribution of this research is that it provides valid data and makes a valuable contribution to the body of knowledge in open-plan office design.
