In this post, I will analyse the rest of the survey questions, which are related to my project theme (Cyber Threats).
In the first question, having been asked if they have been exposed to cyber threats before or not. The result is shown above more than half of them answered NO, which means a satisfying result. However, some of them doubt that with around 20% share. Then, the percentage of those who have been faced cyber attacks represents almost 12% which considered a negligible proportion.
The next question allocated for those who answered YES in the previous question. I asked them to mention the attacks and the reasonable answers are delimited in the red rectangles in the above image.
Then, the following question indicates if individuals are aware of cyber threats risks or not. Impressively, more than half of them believe that 'cyber threats pose a significant risk to us'. Therefore, most of them are aware of its hazards.
The bar chart above demonstrates if individuals believe that fraudsters are targeting financial targets. Thus, more than half of them agree with that 'who chose 4 and 5' (31.7% + 24.4% = 56.1%) which also corresponds with my research essay.
In this question, I intended to see the consciousness of checking the security of the website. As it is shown, the percentage of those who said YES outweighs the rest options with 43.9%. While who do not care about the security or maybe do not know about its importance (who chose NO) took around 30%. Lastly, around the quarter of the participants were do not know if check the security or not.
As you can see here, the result demonstrates more than half of the participants use antivirus on their computers. However, around 27% of them surely does not use it and almost 15% are not sure.
The result of this question was percussive, as around the quarter are using a weak and easy password, due to it is the easiest way to protect your device from cyber attacks. Nevertheless, there are some aware people who use complex passwords and they took almost 60%.
To know if the participant encountered phishing attempts I asked the above question and the result emphasis that the exposure rate to phishing attempt is high approximately with 40% of the participants. The rest of them were not sure or have not received anonymous emails.
The last question shows how people trust the safety of social media. Foruentally, the highest percentage for those who chose they DO NOT think it is safe, while there are some of people who trust social media and that took around 30%.
In conclusion, it was obvious that the majority of the participants are conscious of the riskiness of cyber threats. Despite a notable number of them are not aware and vigilant of protecting their devices by using antivirus or complex password and etc...
