The cost of security breaches within..

Company expansion and new components add new vulnerabilities. The situation is aggravated by the fact that not all employees - especially those with no specialist IT knowledge - can keep pace with a rapidly changing IT environment. As a result, the company is exposed not only to external threats but also internal threats that come from employees.
They found that 21 percent of companies affected by internal threats lost valuable data that subsequently had an effect on their business.

In addition to data leaks, internal threats include the loss and theft of employees’ mobile devices - 19 percent of respondents confirmed that they lost a mobile device containing corporate data at least once a year.
Another important factor was related to staff fraud, where 15 percent of those surveyed encountered situations when company resources, including finances, were used by employees for their own purposes.

This survey is a timely reminder to start the year off on the right footing and have your IT company check your company’s security status and internal practices.
