# [The Myth of Cybersecurity: Identifying and Mitigating Cyber Attacks with Dr. Eric Cole](https://www.secureworld.io/resources/eric-cole-myth-cybersecurity)

 Written by [SecureWorld News Team](https://www.secureworld.io/resources/author/secureworld-news-team) | 2 AM Z

Even with the best security measures in place, attackers are finding new ways in. Prevention is key, but believing that your organization has all the security tools it needs is a dangerous mindset.

Look at the numbers… $44 billion in exposed losses to business email compromise over the past five years. The cost of a data breach is now $9.44 million. There was a 35% increase in phishing attacks last year. And that’s only the beginning. So what do we do about it?

Join Dr. Eric Cole in this virtual event to hear:

• How the threat landscape is changing in 2023

 • Which myths you’re likely convincing yourself are true

 • Why cybersecurity is an ever-evolving game we can’t win

 • And what you can do to make sure you’re prepared to play

This is a live session with a dedicated Q&A portion. Please join us on February 9th at 1:00pm ET and come with questions!

Attendees eligible to receive 1 CPE credit.
