Verizon surveyed 671 professionals in charge of mobile device procurement and management in their organizations. One in three organizations admitted to suffering a compromise due to a mobile device. Two-thirds of respondents said they are less confident in the security of their mobile devices compared to other systems. Verizon found that there is a perception gap because over 80 percent of organizations believe their precautions are effective of very effective but less than 12 percent had actually implemented all four basic protections: encrypting data on public networks, changing default passwords and restricting access to data on a “need to know” basis.”]
