2017 Cost of Data Breach Study Global Overview Benchmark research sponsored by IBM Security Independently conducted by Ponemon Institute LLC June 2017 Ponemon Institute© Research Report 2017 Cost of Data Breach Study: Global Overview Ponemon Institute, June 2017 Part 1. Introduction IBM Security and Ponemon Institute are pleased to release the 2017 Cost of Data Breach Study: 1 Global Overview . According to our research, the average total cost of data breach for the 419 2 companies participating in this research decreased from $4.00 to $3.62 million . The average cost for each lost or stolen record containing sensitive and confidential information also significantly decreased from $158 in 2016 to $141 in this year’s study. However, despite the decline in the overall cost, companies in this year’s study are having larger breaches. The average size of the data breaches in this research increased 1.8 percent. This year, a strong U.S. dollar significantly influenced the global cost analysis and contributed to the decline in the cost. As shown above, the cost of data breach declined $17 and approximately $8 (48 percent) of this decline can be attributed to currency rate fluctuation.3 For purposes of consistency with prior years, we decided to continue to use the same accounting method rather than adjust the cost. It is important to note that this issue only affects the global analysis because all country-level results are shown in local currencies. This year’s study included the following Global study at a glance 11 country and two regional samples: § 419 companies in 13 country or regional samples The United States The United Kingdom
