Four corporate investigation mistakes organizations make under pressure

BlackBerry security executive outlines four investigation mistakes, warning poor chain of custody has cost firms over $2 billion in SEC penalties.

In a Help Net Security video, BlackBerry VP and Chief Security Advisor Christine Gadsby explains how early decisions in corporate investigations—granting access, informal conversations and undocumented choices—damage chain of custody, privilege and regulatory outcomes. She cites more than $2 billion in SEC penalties across over 100 financial firms since 2021 tied to missing records. Her guidance includes naming an incident commander, using communication channels with audit trails, verifying participants, and documenting decisions in real time.

The true cost of a ransomware attack, with and without BCDR

Ransomware's true cost averages $5.08 million per incident versus a $139,875 median ransom, and mature BCDR strategies with immutable backups cut downtime and recovery expenses.

IBM's Cost of a Data Breach Report 2025 puts the average ransomware incident at $5.08 million, far above the $139,875 median ransom payment cited in Verizon's 2026 DBIR. Datto's State of BCDR Report 2025 found 60% of organizations believed they could recover within a day, but only 35% actually did. The Datto-sponsored piece argues mature BCDR with immutable WORM backups shortens downtime, citing a Techify case that restored 19 TB and returned a client to operations in under two hours without paying a ransom. It also flags compliance deadlines such as GDPR's 72-hour breach notification and the SEC's four-business-day disclosure rule.
