Cybersecurity: This attack is the most common threat you will face
Almost half of businesses have experienced a cyberattack or data breach in the past year – and almost all of the organisations that know they've been on the receiving end of attacks have reported being targeted by phishing and other fraudulent emails as the volume of these attacks continues to rise.
The larger the organisation, the more likely it is that they will have identified a data breach or cyberattack – partly because they're going to be viewed as a more valuable target for cyber criminals and partly because they're more likely to have the finances and resources to implement a cybersecurity programme that helps them spot intrusions.
The figures have been released as part of the Cyber Security Breaches Survey 2020, which aims to understand business awareness and attitudes towards data protection and security, and is commissioned by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). The statistics are based around the detection of successful and unsuccessful cyberattacks.
