A 2022 survey of Chief Information Security Officers (CISO) from various industries worldwide found that data protection has become an increased challenge in smaller companies. According to the study, companies with 5,001 employees and more handled data protection better than those with 200 to 500 employees. Therefore, 47 percent of the CISOs of larger companies saw data protection as an increased challenge, as opposed to 55 percent of respondents representing smaller enterprises.
