By the Numbers: Cybersecurity
In September, Keeper Security released its second annual U.S. Cybersecurity Census, polling 516 information-technology decision-makers at U.S. companies. Here are some key findings.
22%
Percentage of U.S. businesses subjected to more than 250 attacks annually, while 12% experience more than 500 attacks per year.
57%
Percentage of respondents saying it’s now taking longer to identify and respond to cyberattacks, with the rise of remote work among several factors. Only 8% say responses are getting faster.
48%
Percentage of respondents who admit to being aware of a cyberattack but having kept it to themselves, often because IT leaders fear professional consequences for disclosing attacks.
39%
Percentage of respondents expecting both total cyberattacks and successful attacks to increase in the next year; the same figure expects cyberattacks to increase but successful attacks to remain flat. . .
