52% of Indian Firms Fell Victim To Cyber Attack In Last 12 Months: Sophos Survey

Malware, artificial intelligence/ machine learning driven attacks and nation state attacks will be the most serious threats to enterprise cybersecurity over the next 24 months

BENGALURU: About 52% of domestic companies said they fell victim to a cyberattack in the last 12 months despite having independent security budgets, according to a Sophos survey The Future of Cybersecurity in Asia Pacific and Japan.

The study, in collaboration with Tech Research Asia (TRA), revealed that cybersecurity budgets have remained stagnant and executive teams continue to underestimate the level of damage threats can do to organisations.

Of these breaches, 71% of firms admitted it was a serious or very serious attack, and 65% said it took longer than a week to remediate.
