New Survey Commissioned By Dashlane Reveals Internet Users Want a Safe Way to Store Personal Online Information
NEW YORK – August 2, 2012 – In the wake of major consumer website hackings, three of five U.S. adults who are online say they feel that they might be vulnerable to being hacked for their online accounts. Savvy Internet users have reason to be wary when it comes to using or storing private, personal information online. In recent weeks, major consumer websites such as LinkedIn, Twitter, Yahoo, Gmail, AOL, and more have all been hacked, compromising millions of users’ passwords and the data these were intended to protect. And since 62 percent of online adults reuse the same password for more than one of their online accounts, one hacking is likely to compromise all of their data online.
