The Security Executive Council’s (SEC) Security Leadership Research Institute (SLRI) is working with Resolver Inc. to investigate the organisational cost of loss due to incidents, such as theft, fraud and abuse.
While the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners tracks cost of loss for occupational fraud, there is currently no public research that offers an industry average of cost of loss that includes fraud and other types of events, such as armed robbery, assault, abuse, product contamination/tampering, and theft. The SLRI hopes to collect enough data to find this average, allowing practitioners to compare their own numbers against it.
