How to spend $3.6mil on one coding mistake
summary
Average breach cost is $3.62M so a choice is clear: pay remediation or spend that on prevention — $3.6M buys ~3,600 code fixes or many training seats, static analysis, DAST/IAST and RASP trials. Static analysis surfaces ~700 categories but yields false positives; a $20k pentest that finds 10 issues plus $2k per-issue dev fixes costs ~$4k each. Enforce parameterized queries everywhere to eradicate SQLi, measure training impact, treat RASP as hard to deploy in production, and use tooling plus coding guidelines.
