- How much will cybercrime cost the world? A widely cited forecast from Cybersecurity Ventures put global cybercrime cost at $10.5 trillion a year by 2025. Check this before relying on it: the post is from 2024, so refresh the figure and cite a current source.
- Why is investing in cybersecurity cheaper than recovering from a breach? A breach adds regulatory fines, downtime, recovery work and lost customer trust on top of the technical cleanup. Prevention spending is usually a fraction of that.
