According to Net Security, more than a third of US employees ignore their companies' IT policies.

JOhn Pironti, member of ISACA’s Education Board, said that the most often broken policies are not using peer-to-peer networks while at work, causing breaches in the confidentiality and security of an entire corporate network.

According to the study, most employees do not really care, over 65% of the professionals said they are not very concerned or not concerned at all with their privacy. Over 63% said that they don't care about the security of their information while at work and over 74% think that downloading personal software on the work computer is not wrong.
