Ponemon Institute & Symantec, feb'10: 59% of employees who leave or are asked to leave are stealing company data. Studies reveal that companies are doing a very poor job at preventing former employees from stealing data. Only 15% of respondents’ companies review or perform an audit of the paper and/or electronic documents employees are taking. It is also surprising to learn that 67% of respondents used their former company’s confidential, sensitive or proprietary information to leverage a new job. Approximately 68% are planning to use such information as email lists, customer contact lists and employee records that they stole from their employer. Not only is this putting customer and other confidential information at risk for a data breach but it could affect companies’ competitiveness and future revenues.
