Global Business Technographics® Devices And Security Workforce Survey, 2016: Overview

This report is an overview of the broad patterns occurring within information workers across multiple areas related to the devices they use and how these devices are secured, based on Forrester’s Global Business Technographics Global Devices & Security Survey, 2016. We analyzed these topics across various geographic regions, verticals, and company sizes. Our analysis shows that information workers are becoming increasingly more mobile and want access to the tools that will allow them to work on-the-go, because it contributes to their overall productivity, efficiency, and well-being. While these technologies are helpful for connecting employees with the information they require to perform their job responsibilities, basic security hygiene is still needed. Marketers, product managers, and market strategists can use this report to build their knowledge of the mobility trends in the workforce and what information workers struggle with when it comes to securing their devices.
