Major data breaches and further technological advancements headlined 2018—and basically every other year before that—but what should you be focusing on as we head into the thick of 2019?
Will there be any improvements tied to the cybersecurity talent gap? Will there be more high-profile data breaches? What kind of regulations could the government have in the works?

“I still think that the number of cyber attacks and the scale of breaches is going to increase,” Meeuwisse says. “$600 billion was the conservative estimate for cybercrime in 2018…[we can expect] at least $1 trillion at least in 2019.”
