The Consumer Cyber Readiness Report reviews consumer attitudes towards digital privacy and security practices online. Together, Consumer Reports and Aspen Digital have reviewed findings across CR’s recent nationally representative surveys and connected with thought leaders to understand the changes in consumer cybersecurity behaviors. Though consumer understanding of cybersecurity practices has increased over the years, resulting in positive changes in behavior, attitudes towards adopting practices and tools to secure themselves online have moved at a slower pace. In an effort to secure networks, data, and devices, it is critical that consumers feel confidence in securing information online and within platforms to prevent harm in light of future threats.
