Businesses Bolster Defenses As Data Breach Concerns Grow
Security Boulevard, February 3rd, 2023
More than three-quarters (77%) of IT decision makers are concerned about the likely risk of a data breach within the next three years, according to an Adastra report.
The survey of 882 IT professionals throughout the United States and Canada, conducted by Forum Research, revealed organizations continue to bolster their cybersecurity defenses to counter this risk.
Nearly seven in 10 (68%) having already created a cybersecurity department and another 18% are in the process of doing so. Just 6% said they have no cybersecurity department.
Mika Aalto, co-founder and CEO at Hoxhunt, said most security leaders today accept that data breaches are a question of when, not if, because most have responded to an incident within the past few years.
