If you collect Personal Identifiable Information (PII) from your clients, tenants or even employees then you have good reason to be concerned by the threat of a Data Breach.
The costs associated with a data breach of your company's confidential third-party information, especially PII that you collect from applicants and tenants, can be staggering. These include costs of notifying those affected, lawsuits and settlements, investigation and remediation of a breach - just to name a few.
So the answer to the question "how much could a data breach cost?" is a lot!
