The Numbers Don’t Lie – Cybercrime Is On The Rise

A man is sitting in front of a computer screen, vulnerable to cybercrime.

You hear it every day; cyberattacks are on the rise and cybercriminals are getting smarter, but still over 75% of organizations believe they are unprepared for and vulnerable to a cyberattack. The numbers don’t lie – experts are analyzing real-world cyberattacks to showcase the real-world threats that they pose. The Hacker News reported that over a 90-day period, The BlackBerry® Threat Research and Intelligence Team found that on average, there were 720 cyberattacks per hour, with Financial Services and Healthcare Services being the most targeted industries.

SC Media just reported a cyberattack by prolific cybercriminals, Snatch, that targeted Healthcare Services by using tactics that rely on exploiting software and network vulnerabilities. Unpatched vulnerabilities accounted for 60% of all data breached in 2022, according to Automox. Even your favorite social media sites are being exploited by cybercriminals, so how can you protect your organization when the threats feel inevitable?
