4. 4 Establishing the Need “Most security breaches occur at ground floor level, through employees making errors or inadvertently revealing information. It is ironic therefore that so many organizations do not have a comprehensive awareness program in place... perhaps missing the obvious and focusing upon the rather more stimulating high-tech threat instead.” ISO 17799 News

5. 5 Establishing the Need Deloitte 2007 Global Security Survey ‘79 percent of participants cite the human factor as the root cause of information security failures’ CSI Computer Crime and Security Survey 2007 ‘The average annual loss reported in this year’s survey shot up to $350,424 from $168,000 the previous year’ ENISA: IS Awareness Initiatives – Current practice and the measurements of success 2007 ‘… information security is seen as a high or very high priority in four fifths of respondents.’ ‘War stories’
