According to a survey conducted by Kaspersky Lab in conjunction with B2B International, around half of the consumers surveyed also use their devices for work. However, only one in 10 is seriously concerned about keeping work information safe should cybercriminals gain access to their device.
One way or another, many employees of large and medium-sized companies use personal mobile devices for work. 36% of respondents store work files on them, and 34% keep work-related email messages.

Such information represents a valuable prize for cybercriminals hunting for corporate secrets.
