This study examines the attitudes of employees towards cybersecurity in Libyan organizations, focusing on how demographic factors such as age, gender, position, and experience influence their perceptions. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a questionnaire distributed to 312 employees across three Libyan companies. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation, independent t-tests, and ANOVA. Results indicated that employees' age, position, and experience significantly impacted their attitudes towards cybersecurity, while gender showed no significant effect. The findings highlight the need for targeted cybersecurity awareness programs in Libyan organizations to mitigate risks and enhance compliance.
