Vision Critical: Risk of Data Insecurity 
Angus Reid survey thru Vision Critical 
Sponsored by IBM Canada 
Soon to be published ! 
Angus Reid, thru Vision Critical, recently conducted a survey to evaluate Canadian(average user) awareness of IT security and availability issues. 
1.50% of Canadians would likely or very likely get involved with a organization if they took extra steps to protect customer information. 
2.83%+ of Canadians would likely or very likely switch organizations if they felt their personal information was not being adequately protected or if the organization experienced a major breach.

Because data breaches often affect thousands of records, the savings can be significant. 
1. Business continuity helps reduce cost of data breach 
3. However, that involvement occurs too infrequently – 
55%of the organizations studied saidthat business continuity management is either not involved or only informally involved in data breach 
2. Organizations are about 5% percent less likely to suffer a data breach when they involve business continuity in a cyberincident
