Global events like COVID-19, pollution, and the financial crisis have led to an explosion in the severity of cybercriminal activity. Unfortunately, cyberattacks are likely to become even more sophisticated and expensive over the years.

Phishing

This technique is commonly used to steal users' credentials and confidential data such as financial records and social security information. Specifically, scammers send emails or text messages with fraudulent information that seems to be genuine. We've also seen many reports of voice phishing attacks, in which scammers try to convince their victims via phone calls.

Ransomware

Cybercriminals encrypt, lock or limit access to valuable data, and the victim must pay a monetary incentive for the stolen information.

IoT Attack

Whenever an internet of things device or network is hacked, cybercriminals can steal data and use it against the victim. With many devices linked to IoT, there is a high risk of being hacked and encounter far consequences.

As we've mentioned (many times), cyberattacks are on the rise, but securing your data is the key to evading those unfortunate events.
