Middle market companies are being cautioned against complacency when it comes to cybersecurity, despite a decline in reported data breaches. A new report from RSM US highlights the ongoing risks these companies face and the need for continued vigilance. The RSM US Middle Market Business Index Special Report: Cybersecurity 2025, presents survey data from 402 executives and offers insights into cybersecurity trends, strategies, and concerns.
The 10th annual RSM US Middle Market Business Index Special Report: Cybersecurity 2025 found that nearly one in five (18%) middle market organizations experienced a data breach in the last year, though almost all (97%) surveyed executives reported feeling confident in their current security measures. The special report, presented by RSM US LLP (RSM) in partnership with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, notes that while reported breaches fell significantly after reaching a record-high of 28% in the 2024 survey, companies must remain diligent in their cybersecurity efforts amid an environment of constantly emerging and evolving threats.
