Findings indicate that current policies fall short in making people feel protected online
SINGAPORE, Sept 26 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Online security is the area that warrants the most urgent attention from policymakers, according to the recently published Internet Society Survey on Policy Issues in Asia Pacific.
The survey polled almost 2,000 end-users from across the region on their attitudes towards current Internet policy issues. Access is still the primary concern for stakeholders, but Internet security has become top of mind, replacing cloud computing as the second-most followed topic by respondents, as tracked by the annual study. Moreover, 58% of respondents in the 2016 survey thought cybercrime was an issue that needed to be addressed by government, followed by connectivity (47%), data protection (45%) and privacy (44%).
