Over 50% of companies have lost data in 2011
2011 Business Data Loss Statistics Released
The Cibecs 2011 Business Data Loss Survey has been released, revealing what the statistics around business data loss in 2011 were, and uncovering the major IT challenges when it comes to protecting endpoint data (located on company laptops and desktops) and increasing our understanding of where data loss vulnerabilities and risks lie.
“In 2011 over 50% of the 250 companies surveyed had lost business critical data,” says Cibecs CEO, Richard Dewing. “Even more concerning was that 10% of companies stated they would not be able to recover business data if lost – while 37% estimated that business data recovery in their organization would take a day or longer (and up to a month in some cases).”
