Polish IT managers score high on trust of staff

A recent IDC survey creates an informal trust index showing that IT managers in Poland, relative to managers in other CEE countries, can trust their staff with data systems. Hungarian IT managers ranked second in trust. Both results are surprising as other research has shown low levels of trust (in Poland) and a high rate of malicious IT activity (in Hungary). Russian IT managers round out the top three in the trust of non-IT staff ranking. Another surprise seems to be the Czech result that showed a solid below average trust in non-IT staff. Below the Czech Republic were Romanian and Greek professionals. According to Mark Yates, Research Manager at IDC CEMA, Symantec estimates that around 29% of data breaches are from accidents and 6% from insider theft.
