Abstract
Mobile devices are now a standard part of both personal and workplace information technology (IT) usage. However, they introduce a variety of security concerns that users are failing to address. This article examines and compares the security preparedness of 227 IT and non-IT college students about to enter the workforce and 83 predominately non-security-focused IT professionals. Results indicate that all groups put their data and connected networks at risk by failing to properly secure their personal mobile devices. Suggestions include organizational mobile device security policies and mobile device security awareness and training for both current and incoming employees.
