These industries have unique risks that go beyond typical business cybersecurity threats. The value of their assets—from live events and fan data to intellectual property and talent reputation—is highly sensitive and requires a targeted approach. A cyberattack in these sectors can have immediate, real-world consequences, such as disrupting a live broadcast, leaking unreleased content, or damaging a celebrity’s reputation.
