Cybersecurity is critical for companies to protect themselves from cyber attacks, but with that, there are costs and benefits to it. One of the most important costs would be hiring a cybersecurity company to install the system on company computers, with the installation the company will have control over their cybersecurity system to make sure it’s secure and it can prevent cyber attackers from gaining access. Another cost would be having training programs for employees to understand the system and know how to use it or hiring cybersecurity staff to manage the system and keep updates on it. Training will also help them know what to do if a cyber attack were to occur as well as know defense measures to help prevent cyber attacks from happening. Upgrades would be another important cost because the system may come out with a newer version with better improvements and help make the system more secure. This may be costly to upgrade because there can be other versions with excellent upgrades that may be expensive, this depends on what the company’s budget is. Even though installing a cybersecurity system can be very costly multiple benefits come with it. One of the main benefits of a cybersecurity system would be data protection from hackers, unknown viruses, and data breaches that may occur. This would be the main reason why businesses would get a cybersecurity system installed in the first place. Another benefit would be that cybersecurity helps keep a good reputation and trust with customers, the reason for this is that a business that is having multiple cyber attacks can damage its reputation. Customers wouldn’t want to align themselves with a business that is prone to cyber attacks, for instance, if a company stores the customers’ information in their system, a data breach may happen where all the customers’ valuable information is at risk of being stolen and may be used for dangerous reasons. For a main benefit, cybersecurity can help reduce risk that can cause financial losses if a cyber attack were to happen. Overall, cybersecurity is very important to have in businesses because it keeps their business protected and other people as well.
