In today's interconnected world, the consequences of unpreparedness are as severe as they were in 1941. Business leaders and C-suite executives need to realize that digital threats can be as devastating as physical ones.

"Cyber Informed Executives" is tailored to empower leaders with the knowledge and strategies required to safeguard their organizations against digital threats.

Cybersecurity is no longer an optional concern for C-suite or any executive leading a team; it's integral to protecting their business's bottom line. 

A single cybersecurity incident can wreak havoc on a company's finances, reputation, and customer relationships.

To put this in perspective:

• In 2021, the average cost of a data breach reached a staggering $4.24 million.
• In the same year, the average ransom payment hit $570,000, illustrating the gravity of the situation.
• In 2022, the global cost of cybercrime was estimated to exceed a staggering $10 trillion, underscoring the extent of the threat.

Furthermore, a 2022 study by Accenture discovered that companies with robust cybersecurity programs are 18% more likely to achieve their target revenue growth and market share. 

In light of these statistics, it becomes evident why the Forge Institute's "Cyber Informed Executives" event is essential for business leaders—it's not just about protecting data; it's about safeguarding the financial health and future of their organizations.
