At this weeks security session on Preventing Data Breaches, we asked a Polling question, so I though the results should be shared. They are very interesting in that all attendees are aware of sensitive data within their systems and that basic need to protect even personal information is a critical concept in today’s world.

This is the Poll results from my recent online security seminar.

So, these results show a clear need to store both personal and customer information, which also needs to be secured. I was pleasantly surprised by the number, 18%, of systems that store Credit Card information, since that is closely governed by VISA and Mastercard.

Thank you to everyone that showed up, and I will update this post, or create another one when the OnDemand URL becomes available.

EDIT:
Here are the two links for the OnDemand webcast and the whitepaper that covers a discussion around data breaches and sybase options.
