There is an ebb and flow to cybersecurity. Black Hats find a vulnerability, White Hats find a patch, and businesses are left in the middle in a constant state of risk.
Attacks are getting more common and more sophisticated. Ransomware attacks alone occur every 40 seconds and ransomwares like Ryuk and Maze show increasing complexity in being able to target the most crucial parts of a network. The impact on businesses is staggering. Business losses attributed to cybercrime totaled more than $2 trillion in 2019, according to a recent report from Juniper Research. This does not include the negative effects an incident can have on a company’s reputation and future financial success.
