The ninth annual cost of cybercrime study helps to quantify the economic cost of cyberattacks by analyzing trends in malicious activities over time. By better understanding the impact associated with cybercrime, organizations can determine the right amount of investment in cybersecurity. Looking back at the costs of cybercrime to date is helpful-but looking forward, so that business leaders know how to best target their funds and resources, is even more beneficial. This report does just that. By understanding where they can achieve value in their cybersecurity efforts, business leaders can minimize the consequences-and even prevent- future attacks.  Our study helps organizations to address one of security’s burning platforms. We reveal how improving cybersecurity protection can reduce the cost of cybercrime and open up new revenue opportunities to unlock economic value.
