Summary:Â Â
Cybersystems provide convenience, ubiquity, economic advantage, and higher efficiency to both individuals and organizations. However, vulnerabilities of the cyber domain also provide malicious actors with the opportunities to compromise the most sensitive information of people and organizations. Governments have since taken some actions in protecting individuals and companies from such crime by employing federal agencies, developing regulations, or issuing laws. However, organizations may not fully comprehend the type of losses they can incur and are not able to forecast how much money they could lose. Therefore, they may lack an understanding of data breach risk, and as a result, they may not be prudently investing in cybersecurity. The purpose of this study is to develop a model to identify the correlation between the monetary impact of personally identifiable information data breaches and the predictor variables and develop a predictive model to quantify the monetary value of the data breaches of personally identifiable information.
