According to Veeam’s 2023 Data Protection Trends Report, 85% of the organisations polled had suffered from at least one cyberattack in the last 12 months, up from the 76% of the same number of organisations polled during the year before.”
Cyberattacks against organisations are now a matter of “how often” and not “if”, says Danny Allan, chief technology officer (CTO) at data security firm, Veeam.
Allen’s remarks come with the release of the results found in Veeam’s Ransomware Trends report for 2023. The report shares insights derived from 1,200 IT leaders whose organisations suffered from at least one ransomware attack in 2022. In the 12 months that the survey was conducted, there were also nearly 3,000 cyberattacks that took place among these organisations.
