more-breach-cost-estimates

More data on the cost of cleaning up after a breach, this time from Forrester via InfomationWeek.

The average security breach can cost a company between $90 and $305 per lost record, according to a new study from Forrester Research. The research firm surveyed 28 companies that had some type of data breach.

It's clear that these estimates vary widely and are a moving target, but it is great to have an idea of what the potential costs could be. It will help greatly in trying to make the case for an information security budget.
