Where is the greatest danger for companies at the moment? This question was recently examined by the “Risk Barometer” of the insurer AGCS, which belongs to Allianz. We have briefly summarised the most important information about the study:
📅 For the study, 2,650 experts were surveyed in autumn 2021.
🚨 According to the experts, cyber attacks are currently the greatest threat to companies. The following places were occupied by business interruptions, natural disasters and pandemics.
⚠️ The problem: There is no 100% protection against cyber attacks and the attackers who get through sometimes leave behind enormous damage.
❗Another interesting fact on the topic of cyber attacks and ransomware extortion: According to AtlasVPN, the number of ransomware attacks in 2021 increased by 105% compared to 2020. This included almost 20 attempted attacks every second last year. The figures cited by AtlasVPN come from the 2022 SonicWall Cyber Threat Report.
