How many companies are victims of cyber-attacks, how much does an attack cost, and what causes and prevents these attacks?
Cyber Security is a crucial topic for companies and organizations across all industries, markets and countries. However, often, security measures are only prioritized after an attack occurred which is the wrong approach and could potentially cost millions as well as decrease the trust your customers, partners and employees have in you.
The best approach is to build a 360° Cyber Security strategy to prevent cyber-attacks or at least widely diminish their impact by identifying threats early and reacting in real-time.
In the following, we collected and summarized recent study results to show how cyber-attacks can harm an organization and why Cyber Security is crucial to detect, disarm, or even prevent security breaches.
