A Survey from Frost & Sullivan, in association with CA Technology, has revealed 27% of business leaders think integrating digital security measures will have no affect on the company's bottom line, however there is a general acceptance that a higher digital trust equates into higher revenue.

The report said companies intending to grow must "enhance their digital trust credentials".

The study showed 70% of consumers surveyed trusted organisations to take the correct precautions to protect their data, whereas organisations perceived 95% of their customers to be satisfied with the levels of data protection offered.
