Welcome to the evolving Cyber Security landscape of 2022

Cyber Security threats are multiplying and increasing in sophistication. However, cyber-attacks too often succeed because of known vulnerabilities or poor or non-existent cyber security practices. While sophisticated hostile state attacks make exciting headlines, more damage is done daily by social media, denial of service, and ransomware attacks.

Every organisation’s journey to cyber safety begins with a solid foundation of basic cyber hygiene.

Of the 39%, the most common threat vector was phishing attempts but also included denial of service, malware, or ransomware attacks*
