Top three cost mitigators grouped column chart

Summary

Figure 18 slide: a grouped column chart pairing high-level and low-level bars for each of the three biggest cost mitigators, the matched counterpart to the amplifier slide before it.

Visual description

White slide with standard chrome. The left half holds two body columns opening with a bold lead-in ("Figure 18. The three most impactful cost mitigators out of 27 factors.") into regular text. The right third is the same soft gray rounded panel holding a grouped column chart titled "Cost of a data breach for organizations with a high level versus low level of three cost-mitigating factors." Three groups (DevSecOps approach, IR plan and testing, Employee training) each show a lavender "High level" column and a blue "Low level or none" column with dollar labels above (e.g. $3.54 vs $5.22). Here the relationship inverts from the amplifier chart: the lavender high-level bars are the shorter, cheaper ones. Dollar y-axis $0 to $6, legend below.

Key takeaway

Deliberately mirroring the previous slide's chart so the reader instantly sees the flip: for amplifiers "high" was tall and bad, for mitigators "high" is short and good. Reusing the exact chart type, colors, and panel makes the inversion legible because nothing else changed.

Reuse notes

A model for paired exhibits that argue opposite directions of the same idea. Keep everything but the data identical across the pair. Suits any report that frames a topic as "things that hurt" versus "things that help" on consecutive pages.
