With the rapid development and data circulating on the Internet, some information crimes have emerged. User awareness and behavior play a major role to ensure information security and provide maximum security. In addition, although the literature provides studies on information security teaching curricula, there is a few evidence of the effect of age on information security in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this study investigates the effect of age and its relationship to the user's security awareness. A survey of 106 participants from educational departments was done for this reason. It's interesting to note that the findings showed that age has a partial influence on computer, web, and email security crimes.
