Cost of Data Loss

The cost of a data loss event is directly related to the value of the data and the length of time that it is needed, but unavailable. Consider:

  • The cost of continuing without the data
  • The cost of recreating the data
  • The cost of notifying users in the event of a compromise

Famous quotes containing the words cost, data and/or loss:

    This people must cease to hold slaves, and to make war on Mexico, though it cost them their existence as a people.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    Begin with loss and see
    how the world contradicts you,
    how the horizon implies that beyond it
    the water is not empty
    but full of ships
    all docking at another island.
    Lynn Emanuel (b. 1949)
