Data breaches could be even more expensive next year, a new report from Acronis has claimed.
Based on data collected from more than 750,000 unique endpoints, distributed around the world, the company’s report claims the average cost of a data breach is expected to hit $5 million by next year.
To make matters even worse – the researchers expect the number of breaches to increase significantly, as well. The threats from malicious and phishing emails rose by 60% year-on-year, they said.
