Video: Are Employees Concerned About Security?

Written by Abby Ross | Oct 2, 2014

In conjunction with National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, our Trustwave team recently hit the streets of Chicago to learn what employees really know about security.

Continuing today through next week, we will post a video each business day to the Trustwave Blog and on our YouTube channel. In our second video, we asked employees: Are you concerned about security? Is cybersecurity on employees' minds as they browse the web, open emails and perform their daily work assignments - all while accessing business' private information? And how have they have been personally affected by information theft?

After you watch, we want to hear from you. Share the videos over social media and email, comment on them, and, better yet, tell us the most harrowing - or proudest - tale of employee security actions you've witnessed as an IT pro. Lost laptops at airports? Sensitive emails sent to personal accounts? Passwords written on Post-it notes? Or perhaps a worker who clicked out of that phishing scam? Tweet at us @Trustwave and be sure to use the hashtag #securitysmarts.

Do you want to commiserate with other practitioners? Be sure to engage in the comment threads on our LinkedIn or Facebook pages - and interact with your peers!
