Organizations continue to increase investment in information security(IS) policies and technologies to prevent external intrusion and internal exposure to information assets. However, as the organization's regulations and behavioral requirements for strict IS policy increase, employees may induce negative behaviors through IS-related stress. The purpose of this study is to suggest the effects of challenge and hindrance stressors on IS compliance intentions and to confirm how authentic leadership moderates the positive and negative effects of stressors. We reflected employees of the organization who are applying IS policy to their work as a study target and applied a survey to obtain a sample for research hypothesis verification. As a result of analysis through structural equation modeling, challenge and hindrance stressors affected IS compliance intentions, and authentic leadership moderated the effects of stressors on compliance intention. Our research helps to establish insiders support strategies to achieve internal IS goals, because the results suggested stressor conditions and leaders' behavioral directions that influence employees IS compliance behavior.

Research design, data and methodology: In this study, qualitative research methodology was used to conduct in-depth interviews with 15 small business owners who started franchise convenience stores, and classify stressors and consequences, coping methods, and situational factors based on the transactional theory of stress. Results: The results of this study are as follows. First, stressors were classified into challenge stressor and hindrance stressor. Second, stress coping methods were classified into problem-focused and emotion-focused coping methods. Among them, SBOs mainly used problem-focused coping methods. Third, consequences were classified into physiological, emotional, and behavioral tension. Lastly, the moderating factorsin the process of stress coping were resilience, social support, and positive traits.
