Survey: Most IT Staff Don't Communicate Security Risks

CowboyRobot writes "A Tripwire survey of 1,320 IT personnel from the U.S. and U.K. showed that most staff 'don't communicate security risk with senior executives or only communicate when a serious security risk is revealed.' The reason is that staff have resigned themselves to staying mum due to an environment in which 'collaboration between security risk management and business is poor, nonexistent or adversarial,' or at best, just isn't effective at getting risk concerns up to senior management."

    They're CEOs which means they are Fox-addled GOP types. Quantify it in Obamas and all of a sudden they'll spend everything in the world to get rid of it.
