Data breaches cost critical infrastructure. Personally identifiable information and medical records can be stolen. And those are just two of the consequences.
Here are some of the other impacts.
A number of businesses report they were attacked on a weekly basis this year. An infrastructure security agency based in the UK reports this. One in five businesses suffered negative consequences.
Reports are saying attacks on supply chains will increase this year. Cybersecurity professionals have listed some of the common attacks .
Application security efforts will also need to focus on the cloud. OMIGOD was a vulnerability discovered in the cloud infrastructure last year.
Deloitte reports recovery from these attacks can take years. That’s why event management is so important. They also report 40% of the total impact is intangible. All the more reason to be proactive. And put items like multifactor authentication into play.
