In order to prevent data breaches before they occur requires building a “Breach-Free Culture” within your organization.  Properly training employees across all areas of your business is a necessary component to breach-proofing your organization.

Another reason to incorporate training into your data breach prevention efforts is that, although cyber-criminals may get the headlines and media attention, the fact is that more than 88% of all breaches are caused by human error and process failures. Technology can't stop someone from making mistakes, however, training that changes behavior can!

Breach-Proofing your organization brings many benefits. We've all seen the statistics... Data breaches cost an average of $202 per record lost... 40% of consumers change their relationship with affected businesses... fines for non-compliance with the law can run into tens of thousands of dollars... lawsuits cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to defend and even millions of dollars to settle.

Creating a Breach-Proof Culture, where employees across all departments and areas share a heightened sensitivity, understanding and commitment to eliminating breaches can reduce your organizations risk.
