Preventing Data Breaches

Understanding how data and security breaches occur can help you put a plan in place to protect your company moving forward. Your customers trust you with their private identifying and financial information, so it is vitally important that you have a system in place that is strong and can withstand any cyber attacks that may occur. Over three-quarters of the attacks that are perpetrated take advantage of either weak or stolen credentials. Over half are the result of some form of hacking and 40 percent happen because of incorporated malware. However, over the last year the costs associated with a data breach on your company are continuing to decline. While it is getting less expensive to fix the situation after an attack, it is more important to have a plan that will prevent attacks from occurring so you and your customers remain safe.
