Study Says Organizations Not Doing Enough to Prevent Employee-Caused Security Incidents
While employee-related security risks are the number-one concern for security professionals, organizations are not taking adequate steps to prevent negligent employee behavior.
The study, Managing Insider Risk Through Training & Culture, from Experian Data Breach Resolution and the Ponemon Institute, asked more than 600 individuals at companies that currently have a data protection and privacy training program to weigh in on the topic of negligent and malicious employee behaviors, as well as the consequences of poor security conduct and the effectiveness of training.
