Phishing Remains the Most Common Form of Attack

The pandemic has presented many challenges for cybersecurity, especially COVID-19-related phishing attempts targeting employees working from home. 


New research shows significant increase in phishing attacks since the pandemic began straining corporate IT security teams. Phishing attacks are “by far” the most common vector for data breaches, according to a new survey by the UK’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport (DCMS). The situation is not much different everywhere else in the world.
 

“Among those that have identified breaches or attacks, around a quarter (27% of these businesses and 23% of these charities) experience them at least once a week,” the report states. “The most common by far are phishing attacks (for 83% and 79% respectively), followed by impersonation (for 27% and 23%). Broadly, these patterns around frequency and threat vectors are in line with the 2020 and 2019 results.”    Contact Us to Learn more!

MSPs: Still Not Appreciating the Risk of Ransomware

  • Since June 2019, Managed Service Providers, IT service consultants and hosting providers have been increasingly targeted by ransomware actors. These attacks target the service provider’s remote management tools to increase the blast radius of the attack. When the attack is successful, every downstream endpoint at every client of the service provider is impacted.
  • VIRTUAL IT SECURITY thwarted a $900,000 RANSOMWARE ATTACK, There attack was a direct result of MSP negligence.
