Build a Security Compliance Program
Cost-effective compliance is possible.
- Most organizations spend between 25 and 40 percent of their security budget on compliance-related activities.
- Despite this growing investment in compliance, only 28% of organizations believe that government regulations help them improve cybersecurity.
- The cost of complying with cybersecurity and data protection requirements has risen to the point where 58% of companies see compliance costs as barriers to entering new markets.
- However, recent reports suggest that while the costs of complying are higher, the costs of non-compliance are almost three times greater.
