Time to sum up.

Time to sum up.

The year 2019 ends. Time to sum up. Unfortunately, cyber threat was even more widespread than in previous years. Let me present statistics and facts: – The average cost of breaking into the organization reached USD 150 million. – There is a hacker attack every 39 seconds. – Most cyber attacks affect small businesses (Cybercriminals have noticed that they will gain more profit by attacking organizations that do not attach much importance to IT security, and can store sensitive data such as email addresses and personal data or credit card numbers.) – Ransomware is the king among viruses (2019 definitely belonged to ransomware. 77% of all successful attacks analyzed ended with data encryption and ransom demands) In the US, only 10% of all burglaries have been reported to the authorities. – The largest data leak – 218 million records at Zynga, the creator of popular mobile games. – 90% of cyber attacks result from human errors, often due to oversight, ignorance or lack of awareness of the threat in the organization
