The average number of attacks suffered by companies in this period was 1130 attacks, and although the number is significant, there is already a greater preparation and concern of organizations in relation to this issue.

 

Several industries are being affected by the constant attacks on companies, however, in 2022 it is the education sector that has recorded the most occurrences.

 

Did you know that the human factor is at the root of 85% of attacks?

 

The biggest gateway to a possible cyberattack is people, it only takes the slightest distraction to open several possibilities for an invader. It is for this very reason that we must ensure that teams are trained and prepared to understand phishing attempts or possible attacks.

 

Our people are our best and most effective tool against cybercrime. A diverse workforce brings a wide range of strategies and perspectives that empower any organization to identify and eradicate potential threats before they become enterprise-wide events.

 

Having teams from different areas prepared to identify potential threats is a great start for companies that do not yet have fully defined security strategies in place.

 

Invest in qualified training for your assets and ensure that your IT teams truly understand the different types of threats while finding the most robust solutions to respond immediately.

 

Alongside safe behavior, it is crucial to keep devices up to date in terms of software and security features, ensuring the same level of protection.
