Many studies have been conducted to assess students and raise their awareness level. This study concerns about students' knowledge and behaviour. This study investigates whether students' knowledge influence positively on students' behaviour to avoid information security vulnerabilities. This study inspects students' knowledge about risks that face them daily particularly when they deal with their computers, email, social network accounts, software downloading and installing and public network. This study selected students of Dammam and Faisal universities located in East of Saudi as a population. The results of this study confirm the research questions and indicate that students' knowledge and culture is associated with the behaviour. Students with enough knowledge are less exposed to risks related to information security.
