From RSA -- With 57 percent of Americans afraid someone will steal account passwords when banking online and 38 percent who do not trust online payments, banks and other e-commerce providers have a long way to go to build consumer trust in the online channel, according to a survey of 1,000 U.S. adults conducted by TNS Sofres for Gemalto, the world leader in digital security. TNS Sofres is the largest custom research provider in the United States.
The research, entitled “Digital Trust Barometer,” focused on people’s attitudes and behavior concerning digital security and technology. It showed people’s concerns about digital security go beyond the Internet. Only 22 percent felt “very good” about the security in any of the digital technology they use, indicating the vast majority of Americans remain wary.
