Cyber claims are at an all-time high in 2022, with the average cybersecurity breach costing about $4.35 million. This ever-evolving risk is not only becoming more expensive, but regulatory bodies are now requiring certain classes of businesses to be in compliance with new security standards. The Safeguards Rule was implemented in 2003 by the FTC, but was updated in 2021 to reflect the current state of technology. Companies that handle financial customer data are expected to be in compliance by December 9, 2022.
