These attacks are able to be launched due to overcomplexity in IT, a common problem throughout businesses as many tech leaders assume more vendors and programs lead to improved security when the inverse is actually true. Successful breaches using these various routes have resulted in the loss of billions of dollars and terabytes of exposed data. Attackers have made cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance systems a priority of late. Further complicating the cybersecurity threat landscape is the proliferation of attacks on non-traditional entry avenues.
Moreover, the research reveals how cybercriminals also use malware and target unpatched software vulnerabilities to extract data and hold organizations hostage. Nearly one percent of all emails contain malicious links or files, and more than one-quarter (26.5%) of all emails were delivered to the user’s inbox (not blocked by Microsoft365) and then were removed by Acronis email security. To extract credentials and other sensitive information, cybercriminals use phishing and malicious emails as their preferred infection vectors. Findings underscore the need for more holistic approaches to cybersecurity. Nearly half of all reported breaches during the first half of 2022 involved stolen credentials, which enable phishing and ransomware campaigns. The report details how ransomware continues to be the number one threat to large and medium-sized businesses, including government organizations, and underlines how over-complexity in IT and infrastructure leads to increased attacks.
