Tek Video: The Probability of a Second Breach

Written by Byron Martin | Aug 7, 2023

If you've had a breach, statistically the likelihood of you having a second breach or more is very high.

 

 

 

Because you've already been a victim and oftentimes the holes or gaps are not entirely filled or they've implemented those back doors.

 

And I have talked to several businesses where this has happened and they're beside themselves.

 

“We just had ransomware six months ago and or a year ago”.

And “How come this is happening again”?

 

Well, you missed some critical steps in the recovery and eradication process.

 

So, statistically 2/3 are hit more than once of those who were compromised the first time. And then 80% of organizations that paid ransom were hit a second time.

 

That's a pretty high number and that's a really scary number.

 

That's why we, again, want to have the plan and we want to do our due diligence.
