A survey of small businesses find that while many of these companies take computer security seriously and take steps to protect their assets, a sizable percentage don’t.
From Computer Technology Review:
AT&T Inc. announced last week that though the majority of small businesses secure its computer systems, about one-fourth (24 percent) are unconcerned about computer and online data security, and one in 10 (10 percent) has taken no action to secure their data, according to a survey conducted by the company, AT&T said.
Similarly, one-third (32 percent) of small businesses are unconcerned about wireless data security, and one in six (17 percent) small businesses that use wireless technology has taken no precautions against wireless threats, AT&T said. This is unfortunate. Small businesses do not have the resources of a larger enterprise to recover from a significant security incident. Many probably don’t have the deep pockets to last through an incident that crimps their revenue stream.
