Why is Cyber Security crucial for an organization?

As technology becomes more sophisticated, the skills of criminals often exceed those of security professionals in an organization. The number of successful attacks is the proof. With the growing importance of cybersecurity, skilled and well-trained engineers are in high demand. Organizations need people with the skills to protect network security and protect systems, computers and data from attack, damage and/or unauthorized access.

Cybersecurity breaches are costly and can damage any business, both financially and reputationally. A recent survey found that 43% of organizations have experienced a data breach involving sensitive customer or business information in the past two years. According to these figures, every year two out of five organizations are affected by major security breaches that compromise vast amounts of confidential data.
