Confidential data loss through e-mail up 170%
More than one out of four employees (27%) surveyed in a new study about personal e-mail use have received confidential company data from outside their company. This figure has nearly tripled from when the first study was conducted one year ago.
The study was commissioned by Elron Software in Burlington, MA, and was conducted by NFO Interactive, a Greenwich, CT-based division of NFO Worldwide. A total of 576 people with desktop Web and e-mail access from work responded to the survey. The study evaluated employee Internet usage throughout the United States from varying types of organizations and job titles.
