在中國，中年人群體常常是網(wǎng)絡(luò)上謠言謠傳最易動搖的群體。涉及到錢財?shù)脑p騙，波及最廣則是中老年群體。那么，年輕人的防騙能力如何呢？

數(shù)據(jù)顯示，也不行…………

Generation?Z, that is, the group of people who are currently between the ages of 16 and 24, are?cocky?when it comes to online security—even though they have no right to be.
Z一代（指95后），也就是目前年齡在16到24歲之間的一群人，在網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全問題上很自負——即使他們沒有權(quán)利這么做。

That’s according to a recent Harris Poll that surveyed 3,000 adults in the U.S., reports Mashable.
這是根據(jù)哈里斯民意調(diào)查所最近對美國3000名成年人調(diào)查得出的結(jié)論，Mashable網(wǎng)報道到。

The poll wanted to get a grasp of how well Americans are familiar with certain online security terms and how much those people implement recommended online security precautions.?
該調(diào)查旨在了解美國人對一些網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全術(shù)語的熟悉程度，以及這些人在多大程度上實施了建議的網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全防范措施。

It turns out that though Generation Z is the first group of users who don’t remember a time without smartphones, they are worse at many aspects of online security than people in the Baby Boomer generation. Specifically, the poll found:
事實證明，盡管Z一代是第一批不記得無智能手機年代的用戶，但他們在網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全的許多方面都不如嬰兒潮一代。具體來說，調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)：

A whopping 78% of Gen Z admitted they use the same password for multiple online accounts—a major no-no.
高達78%的Z一代承認他們對多個在線賬戶使用相同的密碼——這是一個主要的禁忌。

That compares with only 60% of Baby Boomers and 67% of 25-49 year-olds who admitted to reusing the same password for multiple accounts.
相比之下，只有60%的嬰兒潮一代和67%的25-49歲的人承認在多個賬戶上重復(fù)使用同一個密碼。

Gen Zers were also overconfident when asked about whether they would fall for?phishing scams.?
當被問及是否會落入網(wǎng)絡(luò)釣魚騙局的圈套時，Z一代也過于自信。

While 71% of Generation Z respondents said they wouldn’t fall for a phishing scam, only 44% knew what “phishing” meant.
雖然71%的Z一代受訪者表示他們不會上當受騙，但只有44%的人知道“網(wǎng)絡(luò)釣魚”是什么意思。

But things aren’t all bad for Generation Z. They are better at some aspects of online security than their older counterparts. Gen Z users are the most likely to be using two-factor?authentication, with 76% of Gen Z respondents saying they use 2FA on their accounts.?
但是對Z一代來說，情況也不都是壞的。他們在網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全的某些方面比老一輩人做得更好。Z一代用戶最有可能使用雙因素認證，76%的Z一代受訪者表示他們在賬戶上使用2FA（雙因素認證）。

That compares with 74% of 25-49-year-olds who do the same, while only 62% of Baby Boomers have 2FA turned on for their online accounts.
相比之下，在25歲至49歲的人群中，74%的人這樣做，而在嬰兒潮一代中，只有62%的人為他們的在線賬戶使用2FA。
