That is the question posed by responses to a survey carried out by a data security firm which found that almost two thirds of the 1,000 workers it talked to planned to take their work laptops on holiday with them.
Motivated by recession-generated job insecurity, workers are twice as likely to take their computers on holiday as two years ago, said the survey, which was carried out in London on behalf of CREDANT Technologies.
And the security breaches? The company says that 66% of these laptops will be unencrypted and 51% will not even be password-protected, meaning that any luggage mishaps could result in a major corporate data breach.
