Download the new Experian® Data Breach Response guide now
As we navigate a new way of living, working, and handling the unpredictability of COVID-19 and other potential health concerns worldwide, now is not the time to ease up on data breach preparedness. I’ve said it many times before, and I’ll repeat it, every minute counts in today’s fast-breaking data breach response environment.
As pointed out in the foreword of the 8th Annual Experian® Data Breach Response Guide,
“Almost everything is done and undone with a screen touch, keystroke, password, or pin.”
It is a convenient reality for consumers looking to make quick, returnable digital purchases, as it is for hackers who can cause irreversible financial and reputational harm to companies and organizations. In this world, it’s not an option to put data breach preparedness on the back burner. Every employee in your organization, from the C-suite to the call center, must Stay Ready.
In 2021, the average cost of a data breach was $4.24 million.[1]
