Forty per cent had not encrypted the equipment, and the share losing equipment among these was 34 per cent. Six per cent did not know if the equipment was encrypted, or did not consider encryption to be relevant.

More enterprises with universal design strategy

Improved infrastructure

ICT projects carried out over the last two years have improved the ICT infrastructure to a large degree for 66 per cent of the enterprises. Half of the central government reports improvements in their work routines. Twenty-five per cent of the enterprises report that they expect reduced numbers of staff after introducing new ICT systems. The share was 19 per cent in 2014.

Twenty-seven per cent used the media to involve their users in developing the enterprise’s services.

All references to a time period, such as “the last year”, relate to the 1st quarter of 2015.

High share of “Unknown”Open and readClose

In some areas there is a relatively high share of “unknown”, which might be due to the fact that parts of the central government buy external ICT services.
