If the company is in healthcare or finance, yes. Otherwise the typical answer is no. Most companies just load up on cyber insurance and call it a day. That said, reputational concern, is a big thing for companies. Take Dropbox for example. Early on they suffered several security breaches, and had a bad reputation around security. They've since built out a fairly large security program, in part because bad security can block deals, especially in the enterprise space. I'll note that there's been more investment in security the last 4-5 years. Most B2B companies do a SOC2, and early on, so there tends to be a baseline of competence.
