Women Pose a Security Risk When Chocolate is Involved

According to an Infosecurity survey women were four times more likely than men to give away their passwords. When people masquerading as researchers asked members of the public to complete a survey, which included revealing their password in return for a bar of chocolate, they discovered that 45% of women were happy to comply as opposed to 10% of men. 

Companies are encouraged to develop desensitisation programmes to help wean vulnerable staff off this potentially compromising addiction. Or alternatively provide free chocolate so that criminals are unable to capitalise on vulnerable staff during their cold turkey periods.
