Cyber Crime Feared More Than Burglary

Of the 1,000 PC users surveyed in March 2008 through market research
company Ipsos, 57% felt that they will most likely be the victims of cyber
crime with only 21% believing they will be victims of burglary.

These results can be linked to two key behavioral trends:
-- Very high use of the Internet for increasingly sensitive transactions:
-- 74% of users shop online
-- 67% of users bank online
-- 63% of users pay bills online
-- Low levels of protection with high concerns for cyber-related crime:
-- 15% of users surveyed didn't know when security software was
installed on their computers
-- 91% of users agreed that cyber theft is certainly a concern

While 57% of users surveyed said they would most likely be the victims
of cyber crime/theft, 73% felt confident that they were being protected by
their Internet security provider.
