BNN Bloomberg
North American businesses are worried about rising cyber security risk, with a new survey finding 77 per cent of IT managers expect a data breach at their companies within the next three years.
Data and analytics company Adastra shared the results Wednesday from its survey of IT professionals in the U.S. and Canada, conducted by Forum Research last month.
Kuljit Chahal, project lead of cyber security at Adastra North America, said the cyber threat landscape is evolving with more frequent and severe incidents, and said the survey results should remind companies of the importance of investing in data security resources and education.
“C-suite executives and IT people within organizations are concerned with cyber security incidents,” he said in a phone interview with BNNBloomberg.ca. “They are on the rise.”
