As we look back at 2021 it?s evident that cybersecurity strongholds were surrounded by cybercriminals waiting to pounce at the sight of even the slightest crack in defenses. Threats and risks from all angles soon closed in on businesses of all sizes, bringing with them updated tactics and greater motivation to affect targeted industries. These breaches included modern ransomware attacks, Covid-19 related scams, and more developed social engineering threats. Here are a few stats to consider as you look to increase your security in the New Year: The amount of cyberattacks across the U.S. increased by 900% and is still rising.
