The study was sponsored by the PGP Corporation. A similar report for U.K.-based companies was also released. This year's report, entitled 2009 Annual Study: Cost of a Data Breach, displays the results of the Ponemon Institute's research of data breach incidents occurring in 2009. Overall, as with previous years, the study found that U.S. organizations continue to experience increased costs associated with the data breaches they experience.https://privacylaw.proskauerroseblogs.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/26/2019/04/privacy-law-blog-v3.jpg1600800
