A Forcepoint survey of 670 millennials born between 1977 and 1994 found that nearly 25% of respondents have downloaded third party applications and files to personal devices to facilitate productivity without their IT department’s knowledge. Some 70% of respondents connect to unprotected public WiFi, whilst 42% use the same password across multiple systems and apps. The study also revealed that a quarter of those surveyed are using an app or service for work purposes while another 20% say they do so because it is convenient.
