Sekur Private Data, Ltd. (OTCQX: SWISF) (CSE: SKUR): A Well-Capitalized Swiss Fortress in the Cybersecurity Battle

The cyber threat landscape continues to evolve at an alarming rate, with businesses, consumers, and organizations bearing the brunt of this escalating issue. The average cost of a data breach was $4.35 million in the last recorded year, marking the highest average on record, while the average cost of a ransomware attack was even higher at $4.54 million​​. Cyberattacks and ransomware have become increasingly rampant, with the number of ransomware attacks increasing by 93% year-over-year. It took organizations an average of 277 days, about nine months, to identify and contain a breach​.

Notably, the growth of ransomware has contributed to the increase in attacks, with the threat of leaking exfiltrated data present in 86% of cases. Insider threats, either intentional or unintentional, accounted for 43% of all breaches​.

Small businesses, organizations, and healthcare institutions are particularly vulnerable, with cybercriminals using AI and machine learning tools to attack and explore their networks. The growth of the Internet of Things is expected to create many new targets for these bad actors to exploit​​. According to Cybersecurity Ventures, the cost of cybercrime is predicted to hit $8 trillion in 2023 and will grow to $10.5 trillion by 2025​.

One cybersecurity company that is focused on leveraging its innovative technology to assist these small businesses and organizations from cyber threats is Sekur Private Data, Ltd. (OTCQX: SWISF) (CSE: SKUR).

As a result of new services, such as the SekurVPN, and the lowering of CAC, management estimates Sekur will generate solid sales growth in 2023.
