moneyLooking for a good business model with a market poised to explode in the next five years? No, it’s not the latest social media platform or even a cryptocurrency. It’s cybercrime, and your business is rapidly becoming their business.

Juniper Research, digital research specialists and market intelligence gurus, have issued a report that suggests that 2019 will see the cost of data breaches rise to over $2 trillion around the world.

They predict the average cost to each business will rise from around $15 million this year to $150 million by 2020.

But, for the sake of argument, let’s assume you don’t live in that neighborhood and, instead, characterize your business more as a Mike Brady split-level ranch. Well, Mr. Brady, Alice’s meatloaf is ready in the kitchen, but Jan left the sliding door open and your dinner’s about to walk out the door. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!
