Generation Y 'Digital Native' Employees Are Most Likely to Practice Sloppy Cyber Security and Open the Back Door to Corporate Hackers

摘要

New research from T-Systems, the corporate IT and ' cyber-security arm of Deutsche Telekom (Europe's largest telecoms company), into cyber security behaviour and awareness has found that Generation Y employees are much more likely to both over-estimate their knowledge while undertaking unsafe practices. For instance, its research found people in their twenties and early thirties are much more likely to consider themselves 'very knowledgeable' about cyber security than their older colleagues (about 50% rate themselves as "very knowledgeable" compared to an average for all employees of 36%).
