88% of IT Admins Would Steal Passwords If Laid Off

narramissic writes "According to identity management firm Cyber-Ark's annual 'Trust, Security & Passwords' survey, a whopping 88% of IT administrators would steal CEO passwords, customer database, research and development plans, financial reports, M&A plans and the company's list of privileged passwords if they were suddenly laid off. The survey also found that one third of IT staff admitted to snooping around the network, looking at highly confidential information, such as salary details and people's personal emails."

    The first one was a movie reference about the "sysadmin"-type characters getting laid off; completely germane to the topic. The next was the logical response. The take-a-penny thing was just a reiteration of the first post, and frankly, it wasn't that funny.
