Leveraging National Cybersecurity Awareness Month for Continuous Employee Training
Each October, National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM) reminds us just how important IT security is both at work and at home.
It’s also a great catalyst for planning your ongoing cybersecurity training throughout the year for employees, because cyberattacks happen year-round. Security awareness training is not a “one-month” thing, but rather an “all-year-round” activity.
Here are a few statistics that Massachusetts businesses need to be aware of:
There’s been a seven-fold increase this year in the number of ransomware attacks, compared to 2019.
IoT threats rose by 35% in the first half of 2020 compared to the last half of 2019.
Mobile security attacks have continued to rise each quarter between Q2 2019 and Q2 2020.
