Protect Security Without Spending

As a proactive security pro your ability to securely manage users, systems and data, and to protect your organization from external (and internal) attacks is an obvious and ongoing challenge. Here are just a few information security facts that you need to know:

-- When an organization suffers a data breach, it costs approximately $197 per lost record. That means if your company lost 100,000 records, it would cost you close to $20 million.

-- 66% of US employees write down their passwords in unsafe places.

-- Last year, 3.2 billion was lost to Phishing attacks.

-- In the last 2 years over 100 million proprietary records have been lost or stolen.

-- 90% of security attacks can be avoided without the increase of security spending.
