An impressive number of American consumers are concerned about cybercrime and, particularly, the risks smart devices pose to the integrity of their homes. Yet they are still in the dark about how to improve security and reduce risks, a study of consumer perspective commissioned by US insurance company Grange Insurance has found.
One in four people has already fallen victim to a cyberattack, and even though most are unaware what measures they can take to protect themselves, others are feeling pretty confident in how they have approached cybersecurity so far. One in five say “doing more to protect themselves from cybercrime is too much of a hassle.”
