Black Kite Research approached the cost of a data breach from a new angle, to build upon survey-based data in a comprehensive way. Our team of 14 researchers conducted a global data breach cost analysis curated with OSINT techniques, encapsulating 2,400 data breach incidents from 2017-2022. The thorough cost analysis includes information on regulatory fines, court settlements, paid ransom, victim notification, business loss, and more.
