Companies Don’t Secure Data On the Move
Draper, Utah -- Senforce Technologies announced the findings of research it conducted by surveying 56 public and private sector organizations. The Senforce survey revealed that while 87 percent of critical business data is found on endpoint PCs, 56 percent of those asked think their current wireless network security strategy is reactive or inadequate.
To collect the data, information security and technology managers and employees were surveyed by Senforce in the New York, Washington DC, San Francisco, Denver and Salt Lake City geographies. Other key survey findings include:
- 82 percent of new PC procurements are notebooks versus desktop PCs
- 74 percent of those notebooks are wireless-enabled
- 92 percent are concerned about notebooks moving in and out of the network perimeter
- 43 percent have deployed production wireless networking infrastructure with defined policies
- 63 percent prefer non-proprietary wireless networking hardware solutions
- 35 percent of malware (virus, worm, spy ware) incidents resulted from endpoint intrusions while off the managed network
