About this talk

Despite the worsening state of online security, are we becoming more security-minded, and better yet, are we following best practices? The Ponemon Institute recently surveyed 1,761 IT and IT security practitioners in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany and France regarding password management and authentication practices for individuals both in the workplace and at home. What percentage of phishing attack victims changed their password behaviors? How many respondents admit to reusing passwords? The answers to these questions may surprise you. Attend this webinar to hear about the survey results and learn: * How privacy and security concerns affect password behaviors * Risky password practices in the workplace * What authentication technologies are being used * The cost of lost productivity associated with password management * Best practices for enterprise authentication
