Welcome
The Unisys Security IndexTM presents a social indicator regarding how safe consumers feel on key areas of security. Conducted twice a year, the Unisys Security Index provides a regular, statistically robust measure of concerns about four areas of security:
- National security - security and epidemics
- Financial security - bankcard fraud and ability to meet personal financial obligations
- Internet security - spam, virus and online financial transactions
- Personal security - physical risk and identity theft
What's new in the report
Personal security risks, such as bank card fraud and identity theft top the list of concerns for the 9,429 consumers worldwide who took part in the February 2010 Unisys Security Index. Overall, the global Security Index score rose 9 points, to 128, indicating moderate concern over security issues. The survey has also found overwhelming global support for additional security measures at airports: 90 per cent of Britons and 87 per cent of Australians would be willing to undergo a full-body scan in the interest of greater passenger security. Meanwhile, just 24 per cent of Mexicans would be prepared to undergo such a procedure.
