6yThank you for sharing these important statistics, security is becoming all the more important to any organization. With all the recent data breaches, I am glad to see companies adapting 'zero-trust' security models that assume that an entity is malicious and cannot join networks until after complete authentication.
This is why we started up the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service Cyber Readiness Center to help organization become more resilient.
