Controlling Skyrocketing Security Costs
An analysis of security threats in 2012 conducted by managed security services provider Solutionary found dozens of common costly security weaknesses plaguing large and small organisations. DDoS attacks can cost a firm more than $6,000 an hour, said Don Gray, chief security strategist of the firm. Malware infections can cost $US3,000 ($A2895) a day, Gray said. Having the right controls in place and being able to appropriately execute a response plan can help control the costs, he said.
Here's a look at five of the most common security threats Solutionary found, as well as advice on how to reduce security costs.
