Frequently Asked Questions
What costs are included in a security incident?
Direct theft loss is only part of it. Add operational downtime, investigation costs, legal liability, insurance premium increases, and reputational damage – the total is typically 3-5x the value of stolen goods.
How accurate is this calculator?
The calculator uses industry-average data from insurance actuarial tables and security industry reports. Actual costs vary by industry, jurisdiction, and incident type. Use it for budgeting and executive presentations.
How can I reduce the projected costs shown by the calculator?
Most incident costs are driven by “Time to Detection.” By implementing automated monitoring and AI-driven analytics, companies can reduce the window of exposure. Our data shows that integrated security systems typically lower the financial impact of an incident by 30-50% through faster response and better evidentiary documentation.
