Building on this insight, a 2023 survey was conducted to track how New Zealanders’ cyber security attitudes and behaviours are changing over time.
The online survey interviewed a nationally representative sample of 1,023 New Zealanders, aged 18 years and over.
The survey covered demographics, cyber security awareness, knowledge, barriers to change, behaviours, and information sources.
