The cyber threat landscape is continuously evolving, indicating that organizations – especially those handling sensitive information – are at greater risk than ever before. According to a 2024 report by IBM, the average cost of a data breach has surged to $4.45 million, marking a 10% increase from 2023.
“The global average cost of a data breach increased 10% in one year, reaching USD 4.88 million, the biggest jump since the pandemic.” IBM quoted.
The leading causes of data loss include ransomware attacks, human error, cloud misconfigurations, and third-party breaches, among others.
This alarming trend raises a critical question: How well-prepared are organizations to protect the data entrusted to them? As threat actors grow more sophisticated, the stakes for businesses continue to rise, not only in terms of financial loss but also reputational damage and customer attrition.
In this ever-evolving landscape, where trust matters most, organizations must go beyond basic compliance and adopt proactive, risk-based approaches to cybersecurity. This whitepaper explores how frameworks like HITRUST can help organizations demonstrate their security posture, mitigate risk, and confidently assure customers that their data is in safe hands.
