63% of users use them to look for new jobs
According to research by the Ponemon Institute, in which 3,100 IT
professionals from around the world were surveyed, the average company
laptop usuallyhas enough stuff on it to get someone fired.
Porn videos, images or links were found in three quarters of employee
laptops, while two thirds of employees were found to have had
"inappropriate interactions with other employees" of an adult nature on
company laptops. However, it is also possible researchers just didn't look hard enough, as we believe they could have found porn on 99% of company notebooks.
One might argue that there's nothing wrong with porn
as long as employees do a good job and remain loyal to the company.
Well, 63 percent of laptops were found to hold resumes and other
evidence of recent job searches.
Depending on the region, between 23 and 33 percent of employees said
laptops were currently their main PCs, and in five years these figures
are expected to double. The survey seems to have been sponsored by
Dell, which has just bought some rather interesting SSD encryption tech
from Samsung.
