As we celebrate the 24th anniversary of Data Privacy Day, we need to look at the big numbers that dominate the data security and privacy space.

‍

20.193 Billion records!

‍

That is the number of data records that have been breached in the 10 biggest data breaches of history. The number is really put into perspective when you remember that the total population of the world stands at roughly 7.9 Billion.

‍

As is rightly said in Spiderman, “With great power comes great responsibility”. The advent of digitisation brings about various challenges in securing data.

‍

World spending on cybersecurity is projected to increase around 14 percent (from 262.4 Billion USD to 301.8 Billion USD) from 2021 to 2022 and another 15% the year after.

We at Binaryveda do our 2 bit in the global movement for data security by sticking to the best industry practices. We value data security and privacy as high as project delivery to client.
