| New research released by IT analyst firm Quocirca, in conjunction with Digital Guardian, has revealed a growing crisis of confidence amongst UK organisations about the adequacy of their data security measures in the face of growing cyber threats Overall, just 29% of those questioned were very confident in the security of their data, a concerning figure given the impact a breach can have on a modern, data-driven business. "There is no silver bullet for IT security," said Bob Tarzey, analyst and director, Quocirca. "But in an age where the old IT perimeter has dissolved, remote access is the norm and IT systems are increasingly opening up to outsiders, it makes sense to focus on what matters most: the data. The most effective way of doing this involves educating users about the risks and their responsibilities, using the latest technology, but also being prepared to respond, if and when a security breach occurs." | |||
