Each US company has been hacked by a hacker with a $ 30 million per year

Statistics from a recent survey show that an average US business (DN) damages more than $ 30 million a year due to hackers' attacks. This amount of damage is equivalent to 2.2% of the company's annual revenue.

The situation seems a little brighter for small and medium enterprises. Each year, the victims only suffer about 0.5% of their total revenue.

The figures were taken by Infonetics Research, an analyst from the study of when the corporate network "collapsed" due to attackers.

The latest report by Infonetics Research also said that more than half of the total damage is not caused by hackers but originated from the service network degradation in businesses.

Infonetics calls this time "collapsed" like this "a time when the network is down" because they are never publicly announced by businesses.

According to the Infonetics report, most large businesses are the main victims of denial of service (DOS) attacks. Businesses have just been hit by malicious software.

Private businesses as a "cradle" for hackers to test the form of attacks. This object is the target of every attack.

Spyware (spyware) is one of the top problems for small and medium businesses. Statistics show that 40% of network downtime comes from this cause.

" We think that if small and medium enterprises equip themselves with the right tools, manpower and processes to help them control the time of a closer collapse, perhaps the number of losses will be much greater than that. with the number given in our report a lot , "said Jeff Wilson, senior analyst at Infonetics.

" Security solutions for all types of businesses are not lacking, but the lack of appropriate investment from businesses. We hope if the business knows the losses, they will no longer hesitate to work. invest properly in intranet system security solution ".
