Survey: 'Unknown Hackers' Greatest Security Fear, 26.12.03

A survey at a recent security conference reveals that more respondents are concerned about outside intruders posing a threat to network security than current employees.

Reed Exhibitions conducted the survey with Network Intelligence Corp. at the InfoSecurity 2003 event in New York City Dec. 10-11. The survey was answered by 87 of the 2,000 security executives and professionals who attended the event. Some of the highlights:

The network will never be 100% secure, 66% of the respondents answered. On the other extreme, 27% responded that the network will be 100% secure within one to five years.

The most feared potential source of corporate security breaches was 'unknown hackers,' cited by 40%; followed by current employees, feared by 32%. The greatest concern related to security compliance, with the growing number of regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, was the threat by current employees, cited by 47%, followed by unknown hackers, cited by 30%.

The majority of breaches in the past year came from unknown hackers, cited by 49%.

"We shall need compromises in the days ahead, to be sure. But these will be, or should be, compromises of issues, not principles. We can compromise our political positions, but not ourselves. We can resolve the clash of interests without conceding our ideals. And even the necessity for the right kind of compromise does not eliminate the need for those idealists and reformers who keep our compromises moving ahead, who prevent all political situations from meeting the description supplied by Shaw: "smirched with compromise, rotted with opportunism, mildewed by expedience, stretched out of shape with wirepulling and putrefied with permeation.
Compromise need not mean cowardice. .."

John Fitzgerald Kennedy, "Profiles in Courage"
