Good article. I remember it well. It pissed off a lot of people around here. When are IT people going to wise up and start lying on surveys? Again, CyberArk != FBI and 47 != 70. 47% is in line with all of the CSI/FBI surveys. That's a good number. There's no problem with 47%. In fact the FBI does state on fbi.gov in comments on the 2005 CSI survey that "inside jobs" occur as often as outside attacks, which would make 50% the high end. But 70%? There is no data. Anywhere. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
