Generation Y is commonly seen as the tech savvy generation. They have grown up with computers and smart phones, and as such typically adapt quickly to technological changes. One area it seems they may not be as concerned with is security measures. Business owners may find that the baby boomer generation, which has learnt from previous experience, can actually be savvier when it comes to security. Security is so important in many areas of your business and it is probably one of the main reasons you have business insurance for your California based enterprise.
Exploring new technologies is not as daunting to Gen Ys: they tend to dive in and look around, whereas baby boomers may first ask themselves if it is safe. They may do a check before entering a site they fear may be risky, or when opening an email with a suspicious subject line or attachment. Gen Y, with their youthful inquisitiveness, and their tendency to live their lives online, may have a more risky attitude to some matters.
Businesses with Gen Y employees should find that quick education can address these issues easily. This can be a handy reminder to all staff and could help avoid a potential problem due to lax security. Don’t just rely on your business insurance. Instead, take a proactive approach to your company’s security issues.
