According to Pew Research, a majority of internet users can answer fewer than half the questions correctly on a difficult knowledge quiz about cybersecurity issues and concepts. This survey consisted of 13 questions designed to test Americans’ knowledge of a number of cybersecurity issues and terms. The typical (median) respondent answered only five of these 13 knowledge questions correctly (with a mean of 5.5 correct answers). One-in-five (20%) answered more than eight questions accurately, and just 1% received a “perfect score” by correctly answering all 13 questions.

Take the short quiz at Pew Research’s site and let us know how you did in the comments section of our website. You can find the link on today’s post.
