Did you know that in 2021 alone, cybercrime cost U.S. businesses over $6.9 billion? Despite that staggering cost, only 43% of businesses feel financially prepared to address a cyberattack. Cybersecurity can feel daunting, but proactivity is key in defending against cyber criminals – and compliance can play a major role in advancing cybersecurity practices in an organization.

It takes cross-functional collaboration and teamwork to implement strong cybersecurity practices and policies, something compliance teams are especially great at doing. Looking at cybersecurity through a compliance lens can empower leaders and organizations to motivate and encourage their teams to take an active role in safeguarding data against online attacks today and in the future.
