Loosing security over a chocolate bar :-)

Like passwords for chocolate?

Thirty-seven percent of commuters at Liverpool Street Station immediately revealed their corporate password when offered a chocolate bar to do so; another 34 percent accepted after the interviewer noted that it was most likely the name of their pet or their child. The survey, conducted by the organizers of Infosecurity Europe 2004, shows that employers are not educating their employees about the importance of information security, asserts Claire Sellick, event director for Infosecurity Europe 2004. The survey also found that most participants would prefer to use either biometric authentication or smartcards.
