Data Loss Prevention Report 2021: Defending against daily data loss

Egress

“On average, organisations experience 3.5 data loss incidents every working day.” 

IT leaders face an immense challenge when it comes to data loss. The challenges of the past year have only served to exacerbate the situation. Employees who are working from home against the background of the pandemic are subject to more distractions. They are under increased stress and many are more tired than they were before. All these factors increase the likelihood of errors that lead to data loss.

Our latest research, conducted by independent organisation Arlington Research among 500 IT leaders and 3000 remote-working employees in the financial services, legal and healthcare sectors within the UK and the US, reveals the true scale of data loss incidents and the damage they do to organisations.
