More than three quarters (77%) of IT decision makers across the U.S. and Canada believe their companies are likely to face a data breach within the next three years according to a survey of 882 IT professionals across North America, released recently by Adastra and conducted by Forum Research in December 2022.
Survey respondents ranked data security as the biggest game changer in 2023 as companies continue to bolster their cybersecurity preparedness. Sixty-eight percent of managers say their companies have a cybersecurity division and a further 18% report they are in the process of creating one. Only 6% of respondents reported having no cybersecurity division.
