In its report, entitled Keeping the Faith: Government, Information Security and Homeland Cyber Defense, the ITAA says that almost 75 percent have expressed fears that their personal information on the Internet could be stolen or used for malicious purposes. An equal number said they were concerned that cyberattacks could target critical infrastructure assets such as telephone networks or power plants. Commenting on the research, Harris Miller, the ITAA's president, said that the attacks of September 11 had destroyed lives and property. "They also destroyed peace of mind for many people using the Internet. In an era of great uncertainty, a perceived lack of Internet security is generating high anxiety in cyberspace," he explained. "These survey findings tell me that government, industry and computer users must work together to slam the lid on cybercriminals, terrorists and hackers and to restore the faith of the online community," he added. For the report, Luntz Research conducted a random telephone survey of 800 adults in the U.S. in late November. www.itaa.org ------------------------ Yahoo!
