Learn how you can boost your preparedness against cyberattacks—downloadthe new guide now.

As the proliferation of connected devices and third-party integrations accelerate, organizations are becoming more exposed to risk. Your attack surface is expanding, and it’s a hacker’s dream. But their dream is your nightmare. While there will always be at least one monster hiding under the bed, being prepared and having a plan can help you sleep easier and soften the blow when an attack does happen.

How likely is your organization to be the victim of an attack? As pointed out in the9^thAnnual Experian Data Breach Response Guide,

“Cyber attacks happen once every 39 seconds.[1]

There’s no time to rest, and no time to let your guard down.It’s just a matter of time before your data becomes a target, whether it is a direct hit to your organization or through a third-party supply chain attack (one of the latest trends hackers are using to gain access to huge amounts of data in just one sweep). You never know when your day will come, so being prepared now is the only way.

15% fewer incidents occur on average for customers with a plan.[2]

Having fewer incidents helps keep your data safer and your bottom line healthier as the cost of a data breach continues to break records year after year.
