Cybersecurity Awareness Month: Perception vs reality

This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we simplify cyber risk management with steps to prepare and protect across all industries.

This October, we’re using Cybersecurity Awareness Month to spotlight the gap between how boards think about cyber risk and what really happens when incidents hit. WTW’s Cyber in Focus 2025 brings together 4,650 claims and boardroom survey data to show where confidence and reality diverge — and what that means for revenue, reputation, resilience, and regulation.

What’s on this month — aligned to the Four Rs

Revenue

Downtime costs more than preparation. A three-week outage can wipe out a quarter’s earnings.

Reputation

Trust evaporates fast. The difference is how you respond, not whether you’re breached.

Resilience

Plans on paper don’t count unless they’ve been tested. Regulators are now asking for proof.

Regulation

Compliance alone won’t protect you. Cross-border rules, fines, and liability now demand active governance.

WTW’s Cyber in Focus 2025 reveals the gap between boardroom confidence and real-world losses. With 4,650 claims analyzed, this report gives boards evidence to stress-test plans, set budgets, and strengthen resilience.
