Cybersecurity Budgeting & Planning for 2026
How much should your organization budget for cybersecurity in 2026?
In this episode of Data Security over Coffee, Reclamere’s Joe Harford and Angie Singer Keating sit down with Jenny Heyns, a technology executive with 30 years of experience and a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy, to answer one of the toughest leadership questions: How do you align your cybersecurity budget with business goals?
Together, they explore:
🔹 Why cybersecurity maturity (not just dollars) drives smart budgets
🔹 The difference between IT operations spend vs. cybersecurity investment
🔹 Practical steps for SMBs starting from scratch (MFA, password management, vendor oversight)
🔹 The hidden risks of neglecting incident response, asset disposition & vendor management
🔹 How leaders can prepare for audits, breaches, and AI-driven risks in 2026
If you’re a CISO, CIO, IT Director, Compliance Officer, or SMB executive, this episode will help you budget smarter, strengthen resilience, and lead with confidence.
