Awareness lack is top obstacle to effective information security

The 2004 Global Information Security Survey from Ernst & Young identifies lack of security awareness by
users as the top obstacle to effective information security. However, only 28% listed “raising employee
information security training or awareness” as being a top initiative in 2004.

Neupart finds the reason to this contradiction clear: Until recently, the market has not provided many affordable, practical solutions to employee information security training, even though most organisations certainly realize the importance. That is the simple reason why Neupart developed a policy based information security awareness solution, named SecureAware.
