New global poll from Leonne International of over 1,000 business decision-makers reveals that over one third of companies have axed IT staff and half have cut IT Budgets due to Covid-19 concerns. Almost half (47 per cent) of companies surveyed have frozen IT budgets for the foreseeable future in order to save money during the crisis. Despite restricting IT budgets, 41 per cent of business decision makers admitted that their remote working system is not compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation. Despite this, 37 per cent are still using outdated versions of Zoom; 37% have allowed members of staff to purchase their own devices to work from home many of which will not be properly protected.”]
