Twenty-nine percent of respondents to a Radius Global Market Research (GMR) survey felt there wasn’t an industry leader protecting their online data, said a company release Thursday. Radius GMR interviewed a “nationally representative sample” of 1,008 Americans in December 2013, said the report. Twenty-seven percent of respondents said financial services companies were doing the “best job” protecting online data; 14 percent said e-commerce sites were the best, it said. “Those surveyed felt that no company in any industry is doing it well,” said Radius GMR Director Jamie Myers in the release. “Consumers made it clear that a perception of poor security practices is reason enough to stop doing business with a brand,” he said.
