Intermedia, a company that works with cloud and security services for businesses, conducted a study to determine how safe the average company was, and the results weren't terribly encouraging. Of more than 2,000 workers surveyed in the United Kingdom and the United States, Intermedia determined that 97 percent had access to some kind of confidential company information, and 93 percent took part in at least one bad security practice. With numbers that high, the overlap between the two categories is bound to be substantial.
