The Ponemon Institute released a study last month which examined 43 organizations across 17 different industry sectors, showing that data breach incidents cost U.S. companies $202 per compromised customer record in 2008, compared to $197 in 2007.
Since the study's inception in 2005, this cost component has grown by more than $64 on a per victim basis, nearly a 40% increase.
