1 In 3 Sysadmins Snoop On Colleagues

klubar writes "According to a a recent survey, one in three IT staff snoops on colleagues. U.S. information security company Cyber-Ark surveyed 300 senior IT professionals, and found that one-third admitted to secretly snooping, while 47 percent said they had accessed information that was not relevant to their role. Makes you wonder about the other 2 out of 3. Did they lie on the survey or really don't snoop?"

    They probably have a life. It's pretty pathetic to have to get one's jollies snooping on others rather than actually doing something.

    According to that survey, 2 out of 3 sysadmins realize that spying in a CLI (career limiting move) if they get caught. That, and the whole ethics and honour thing, are why we are able to manage the confidential data without snooping.
