NRT-0066 Security Attacks are Costly:

Large US organizations are losing an average of 2.2% of their annual revenue, or more than $30 million, to security attacks, according to research recently published by Infonetics Research. Infonetics' "Costs of Network Security Attacks: North America 2007" report shows that more than half of downtime costs are due to service degradation for small, medium and large organizations. In addition, the research found that medium-sized organizations are most vexed by client malware, while large organizations are plagued more by denial of service attacks and server malware. Small organizations are affected fairly evenly by all three sources of attack.
