They might have grown up online — but Gen Z are apparently far less likely to use antivirus, study finds

A recent survey by Kaspersky involving 7,200 respondents from 18 countries found that only 27% of Generation Z use antivirus software on their mobile devices. Additionally, 57% of Gen Z spend more time online than offline, yet many lack awareness of online safety principles. Alarmingly, 52% reported experiencing attacks on their devices or accounts, but few take necessary precautions. Only 28% regularly back up important personal data on their phones, and many neglect changing passwords. To address these issues, Kaspersky launched "Case 404," a cyber-detective adventure game aimed at improving cybersecurity awareness among Gen Z.
