Data security | Would your staff sell company secrets for £1,000?

Just £1,000 is the price it would take for a quarter of your staff to sell company information, according to new research from a cybersecurity firm.

Deep Secure’s What is the Price of Loyalty report found that almost half (45%) of staff would be willing to sell corporate information to people outside their organisation.

Shockingly, five per cent would give it away for free.

According to the firm, this isn’t just a hypothetical scenario – almost six in ten have admitted to having taken information off corporate networks.
