The world depends more than ever on technology. As a result, the creation of digital data has increased. Today, companies and governments store much of this data on computers and transmit it over networks to other computers. The devices and their underlying systems have vulnerabilities that, when exploited, compromise the health and objectives of an organisation. A data breach can have devastating consequences for any business. It can ruin a company's reputation through the loss of trust of consumers and partners. The loss of critical data, such as source files or intellectual property, can cost a company its competitive advantage. To go further, a data breach can have an impact on business revenue due to breach of data protection rules. It is estimated that, on average, a data breach costs an affected organisation $ 3.6 million. With the high-profile data gaps that media holders occupy, it is essential that organisations adopt and implement a strong cyber security approach.
