The costs of cybersecurity breaches are staggering.

The costs of cybersecurity breaches are staggering. A recent estimate placed the average cost to an organization hit by a cyber attack at about $3.9 million, with the costs of mega breaches (breaches of 50+ million records) approaching $350 million.1

The danger is clear, and yet the threat seems to have caught many organizations flat-footed. Consider the following:

  • Hundreds of thousands of cyber jobs in the U.S. are currently vacant.
  • Postings for cyber jobs take longer to fill than postings in general.
  • Many cybersecurity experts warn that employees present as much of a threat as outside hackers.
