The Real Cost of Cyber Risk in 2025: What Cyentia’s IRIS Study Reveals The @cyentiainst’s 2025 Information Risk Insights Study (IRIS) is here — and this year’s theme is Time. Tracking over 150,000 cybersecurity incidents from 2008 to 2024, the data reveals just how fast (and how far) cyber risk has evolved. Here’s what stood out: * 3,000 major security incidents now occur every quarter — a 650% increase in 15 years. * Average losses have soared from $190,000 to nearly $3 million. * Smaller businesses (under $100M in revenue) now represent the largest share of incidents, shattering the myth that they’re too small to target.

From lecture halls to labs, campus networks never sleep. See how universities are improving visibility, resilience, and reducing personal risk across complex environments. plixer.com/blog/university-n…
