IT Departments on Data Security: A Research Concepts Survey

Overview

A survey of 185 IT professionals finds that, although computer and data security are high priorities, they are surprisingly unprepared to prevent data breaches and computer theft. One out of four organizations surveyed had a data breach in the past year. Preventative measures are found to be consistently undermined, with only 1 in 100 employees consistently following security policy. This white paper explores the survey findings.
