Study: Porn Found On 25% of Corporate PCs

April 18, 2007 by Kiltak |

Think your company’s corporate desktops and laptops are free of porn? Think again. According to a new study, one out of four office PCs contains pornographic material, and this is despite the fact that most corporations use content filtering technology at the gateway. What are your thoughts on this? Is this study exaggerating the situation or is it painting a true portrait of it?

The truth of the American workplace rears its naked head yet again.  In an audit of 10,000 PCs at 125 business and public sector networks over the last nine months, PixAlert – a company that blocks illicit images on corporate networks – found that 25% contained some form of pornography.  The study determined that 46.8% showed full nudity and/or sexual activity; 0.3% were deemed “illegal.”

Well, did they count the offices of porn websites and porn studios? That probably increases the count since…well, if they don’t have porn on their computers, they’re not really at work.

guess it has nothing to do with the fact that more than 70% of the internet is porn….
