The study encompasses both users of e-commerce systems and non-users of e-commerce systems across Vhembe district of Limpopo Province in South Africa. A quantitative research approach was used. The findings revealed that perceived security was the main concern for non-users of e-commerce intentions to use e-commerce systems because of lack of information and lack of trust on e-commerce systems. The study also revealed that users of e-commerce systems are still concerned about security, even though they intend to continue using e-commerce systems. For the success of e-commerce in rural communities, government needs to join hands with retailers and SME’s to start awareness campaigns that will clarify how e-commerce systems work and eradicate negative perception on e-commerce systems.1 online resource (x, 99 leaves : color illustrations)enUniversity of VendaE-CommerceAdoptionIntentionPerceived securityPerceived trustPerceived privacy658.4780968257Cyberterrorism -- South Africa -- LimpopoComputer crimes -- South Africa -- LimpopoElectronic commerce -- South Africa -- LimpopoTerrorism -- South Africa -- LimpopoComputer security -- South Africa -- LimpopoRisk management -- South Africa -- LimpopoDissertationNetshirando V.
