Re: looking for stats

I'm planning to do some marketing of my pen testing service and I'm
after some stats to use with it. Things like number of sites hacked each
year or number of sites suspected of being insecure. Also stuff like
cost of fix/clean up after an attack would be good.

The target audience isn't going to be computer specialists so I would
like the stats to come from sites or references which general public can
associate with, e.g. "A report by the BBC says that..." rather than "a
report by 0b5cur3 Hack3r 5ite says...".

Its not everything you are asking for, but you might find the following
to be a useful start:   http://www.cert.org/stats/cert_stats.html
