The study by Keeper Security, based on a survey of 8,000 people in the United States, United Kingdom, France, and Germany, found that 75% of the respondents admitted they don’t adhere to password best practices, while nearly two-thirds (64%) acknowledged they’re using weak passwords or repeat variations of passwords to protect their online accounts.
“In order to analyze people’s personal cybersecurity hygiene, we asked which animal they would identify with in regard to their cybersecurity behaviors,” Darren Guccione, CEO and co-founder of Chicago-based Keeper, explained in a statement.
“With over one in four people describing themselves either as an ostrich burying their head in the sand, careless as a bull in a china shop, or a possum paralyzed with fear, the industry clearly still has much work to do to get more people comfortable with cybersecurity and better protected as a result,” he added.
