The human aspect of cybersecurity is widely recognized as a critical component of cyber resilience and risk reduction. However, one of the least understood areas is that of security behaviors and attitudes. Specifically, the gap or disconnect between knowledge and action.

In honor of Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2021, the National Cyber Security Alliance and CybSafe have launched the world’s first Cybersecurity Attitudes & Behaviors Report. The research report is the first of its kind. It examines cybersecurity attitudes and behaviors of the general public, shedding light on one of the most important aspects of cyber risk - the human factor.

This research applies scientific rigor and robust data analysis to help academics, practitioners and policy makers around the world better understand people-related security issues as they relate to enhancing awareness, influencing security behavior and improving security culture.

Report Insights
- Millennials (44%) and Gen Z (51%) are more likely to say they have experienced a cyber threat than baby boomers (21%).
- 79% of baby boomers said they had never been a victim of cybercrime.
- 46% of respondents say they use a different password for important online accounts, with 20% saying that they “never” or “rarely” do so.
- Only 43% said they create a long and unique password either “always” or “very often.”
- 48% of respondents say they have “never heard of MFA.”
- 64% of respondents have no access to cybersecurity training, while more than a quarter of those who do have access choose not to use it.

This year, the National Cybersecurity Alliance partnered with CybSafe to take a behavioral lens for the 2021 research...
