  • Overview


    In the 2004 survey, Internet usage had climbed to 93% of UK companies. The late adopters tended to be less controls-conscious. As a result, incidents of staff misuse rose rapidly.

    This survey shows even higher levels of adoption; 97% now have an Internet connection and 88% of these are broadband. With broadband, the Internet is only a click away. Increasingly, UK businesses recognise the temptation this poses to their staff. More companies have an acceptable usage policy for the Internet than have an overall information security policy. The dip in controls seen two years ago has reversed.
