The study highlights awareness and perceptions of information security among postgraduate students. To make everyone aware of the opportunities and difficulties that exist in today's threat landscape, modify risk behaviour, and develop or strengthen a secure corporate culture, information security awareness training is required to be effective. This paper aims to assess information security awareness among Postgraduates of Mangalore University. A survey was conducted, and appropriate tools and technologies were used to collect and interpret the data. Based on the results, suggestions for information security among postgraduate students were made.
