Security teams are also more confident about their data breach response plans, even though the number is only 57%. Experian and the Ponemon Institute shared the state of data breaches and defenses against these attacks in the seventh annual "Is Your Company Ready for a Big Data Breach?" report.
Experian has firsthand experience with a massive data breach.
In 2015, Experian disclosed a data breach which led to the compromise of information - including Social Security numbers - belonging to 15 million consumers.
Just over half are conducting third-party cybersecurity assessments and integrating data breach response into business continuity plans.
All respondents work in IT and IT security, compliance and privacy and are involved in data breach response plans in their organizations.
