Cybersecurity: Rising to the Challenge

Cybersecurity: Rising to the Challenge

The average cost of a data breach in 2021 reached $4.24 million. As breaches get larger and increasingly make headlines, the number one business priority is cybersecurity. 

Everyday, data breaches affect companies of all sizes. With the average cost of a data breach in 2021 reaching $4.24 million (a 17 year record high according to IBM’s annual report), some businesses never recover [1]. As breaches get larger and increasingly make headlines, the number one business priority is cybersecurity.

Technology plays a big part in how vulnerable — or how prepared — an organization is, often protecting against more advanced attacks. In 2020, 82% of compromised records were associated with only five attacks — all of which occurred due to database or service misconfigurations [2]. The right security solutions can help detect and prevent such issues.

Advanced technology and services such as AI and/or ML, zero trust strategies and advanced cloud use can help mitigate the growing cybersecurity threat.
