The Cisco Data and Privacy Benchmark Study 2026 report indicates that investments in data protection yield economic returns and strengthen trust in the use of data and artificial intelligence. The study targets businesses, with a focus on Italian SMEs, where compliance (particularly with GDPR) is often perceived as a cost rather than an advantage. The document emphasizes the impact of these measures on the management of personal data, cloud services, and infrastructure, though it does not provide specific figures or detailed methodology.
