Share and cost by malicious attack type

Summary

A figure slide stacking two horizontal bar charts by malicious attack type: Figure 19 on share of breaches and Figure 20 on cost, with two columns of body copy to the left.

Visual description

White slide with standard chrome. The left half carries two body columns, each opening with a bold figure lead-in ("Figure 19. Nearly one-quarter of attacks involved ransomware." and "Figure 20. Ransomware attack costs increased significantly.") flowing into regular text. The right half stacks two charts separated by a faint hairline. The top chart, "Share of total breaches by type of malicious attack," is four blue horizontal bars (Destructive attack 25%, Ransomware 24%, Attack on the business partner supply chain 15%, Attack on the software supply chain 12%) over a 0 to 30% axis, with a note that bars will not sum to 100%. The bottom chart, "Cost of a ransomware or destructive attack," is two long blue bars (Destructive attack $5.24, Ransomware attack $5.13) over a $0 to $6 axis. Italic figure captions sit beneath each.

Key takeaway

The recurring "two stacked bar charts, share on top, cost on bottom" module, here applied to attack types. The explicit "bars will not sum to 100%" note is an honest touch worth copying when categories overlap.

Reuse notes

Reuse this exact stacked pattern (frequency then cost, same blue, same column count) for any taxonomy you want to characterize on two dimensions. Mind that the two charts here do not share identical category sets, so the alignment is looser than on slide 23; align rows when you can.
