October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and this year we wanted to take a closer look at the relationship between IT teams and employees when it comes to tech support and keeping businesses secure. How effectively are they working together? What are the most common issues that arise? And how can cybersecurity practices be improved? We surveyed 2,000 US employees and IT workers to find out!

And the trust is mutual – 81% of employees also feel confident their IT teams are prepared to prevent and stop cybersecurity issues.

However, there’s still work to be done, as an astonishing 94% of employees delay reaching out to their IT teams for help, and a majority reported following unsafe security practices that could jeopardize their organization’s systems.
