So, how vulnerable to a cyber attack is your business?

According to the FBI’s 2020 Internet Crime Report, 791,790 cybercrime complaints and losses exceeding $4.1 billion US Dollars were reported to the Internet Crime Complaint Center. This was a 69% increase in total complaints from the year before in 2019.

Within the US alone, 1,506 data breaches were reported in 2019, and by 2020, the average cost of a single data breach across all industries worldwide has increased to about $4M.

As the world continues its journey into the digital age, along with the rise of cybercrimes, it has become more apparent and critical for companies to tighten up their cyber security and prove to their customers just how serious they are when it comes to data protection.

Security and compliance are important factors for companies, no matter how small or large they are, or how long they’ve been in business.

The Importance of a Strong Security Posture

To combat cyber threats, companies must build a strong security posture to ensure they have the latest tools, systems, and controls in place to combat cyber threats.

A strong security posture can be maintained using automation in part by continuously monitoring various controls across the organization. It plays a key role in your company’s overall ability to manage the impacts of online attacks and allows companies to comply with regulations as they continue to scale.

A company’s ability to detect, prevent, and respond to online threats can help strengthen its credibility and instill trust in partners and customers.

So when you’re building your security posture, it’s imperative that your company invests in a secure client, project, and task management software like ClickUp
