"Many Tech Experts Fail a Test of Their Cybersecurity Knowledge"

A survey of over 2,300 self-identified technologists from 90 countries reveals a lack of cybersecurity knowledge. In April and May, on behalf of RSA Security, a series of fact-based questions were posed, such as the most common cause of data breaches and how to implement a zero-trust strategy. The results were recently released as part of the RSA ID IQ report, as most of the questions dealt with identity-related issues. Fewer than 10 percent of respondents answered the majority of questions correctly, while nearly 50 percent answered at least half of the questions incorrectly. Two-thirds of the self-proclaimed experts in identity management did not choose the best practices for phishing prevention. This article continues to discuss key findings from the survey on cybersecurity knowledge.
