No matter how good your systems are, your users determine how secure your network is day-to-day by the way they conduct themselves.

In a 2007 survey conducted by DigitalPersona in conjunction with the Business Performance Management (BPM) Forum, almost 60 percent of respondents said that they had shared their network password with a colleague and 17 percent had either given out or received someone else's token or smart card. See if you can identify the security lapses on the picture below:
