INTERNET ACCESS FACTS

Surfing the Internet has become a favorite pastime of people of all ages. The Internet can also be a source of real time information, news and entertainment.

Most businesses are generally resigned to the fact that employees are sometimes using company resources during business hours for personal use. Social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter are regularly accessed during work hours. There is a huge risk of misuse, abuse and productivity loss with these sites.

The Internet can expose people including minors to gambling, drug abuse, pornography, hate literature and violence. Statistics from various respected sources indicate a critical need for Internet Management and Control measures.

Browsing Statistics

International Data Corporation estimated that 30% to 40% of employee Internet use isn't work related. Nielsen/NetRatings reported 92% of online stock trading occurs from the workplace during work hours and 46% of online holiday shopping takes place at work. Another shocking statistic from SexTracker states that 70% of all Web traffic to Internet pornography sites occurs between 9 am and 5 pm.

In the United States, real cost loss estimates range from 1.75 billion to well over 2.5 billion a year. Communication managers must have a handle on Internet usage practices in order to gage bandwidth needs, monitor and control browsing activity and secure their business intelligence. Educational institutions, government agencies and general business can derive huge benefits from measuring and policing Internet usage.

• 30% to 40% of employee Internet use isn’t work related.
• Malicious computer use and Internet misconduct costs businesses billions every year.
  
• Over 60% of businesses have no internal security policy regarding the use of the Internet.
  
• Anti virus software and firewalls will not protect computer systems from malicious users and employees.
  
• Internet access is enemy number one for software piracy.
  
• A quarter of companies have dismissed employees for Internet misconduct.
  
• Adopting new security software can only change the future.

Overall there is a distinct lack of awareness of the importance of computer security. If your computer systems have only the usual virus protection and/or a firewall then your systems are at risk from internal abuse and misuse.
