Hello,
I'm rewriting a white paper for an IT services company and I'd like to
add a statistic for the percentage of corporate data that is on
individual laptops and PCs and not on company servers. (Business data
not stored on the company's server does not get backed up regularly
and is therefore at risk if the laptop/PC is stolen or
destroyed.)
Obviously this would be a rather rough number since it's difficult to
quantify, so an estimated range is acceptable.
Thanks!Hi Marykayems!
Industry analysts estimate that from 60-75 percent of corporate data
is generated and "maintained" in locations other than the corporate
headquarters

According to Gartner, 40 percent of corporate data now resides on handheld devices.

?According to The International Data Corporation (IDC), at every
company from the smallest business to the Global 2000, an estimated 60
percent of vital data is stored on individual PCs, with little or no
protection. Less than 8 percent of users backup their data on a daily
basis.?

?Strategic Research Corp. claims that 60 percent of corporate data
resides outside of managed servers on remote desktops, networks and
mobile systems. Further, the consultancy estimates that 75 percent of
this "edge data" is either ineffectively protected or not protected at
all.?
