Seventy-One Percent. Really.
A recent survey of 172 office workers waiting for commuter trains at a London financial district transit station found a shocking 71% turned over their passwords in exchange for a chocolate Easter egg. Some even gave up the goods for a pen."We were really quite shocked at how easy it was to get them to give such sensitive information away," said Neil Stinchcombe, one of the researchers who took part in the third annual survey on office scruples to help promote the upcoming Infosecurity Europe 2004 conference this month in London.
