Improving Ransomware Resiliency is Crucial in Australia
Ransomware continues to pose the biggest threat that organisations face against malware attacks, with data breaches becoming an imminent reality for businesses in any industry. According to industry research Australian organisations in particular fall victim to ransomware attacks at a much higher rate than the rest of the world.
- Australia has seen a 15% increase in ransomware cyberattacks in the last 12 months
- Estimates indicate that a business is attacked every 11 seconds
- It takes an average of 69 days to contain a breach
- Data breaches cost organisations an average of $3 million
- 73% of organisations feel they don’t have enough staff to protect themselves against current threats
When an attacker locks you out of your systems and holds your data ransom, your business is at the mercy of the attacker’s demands. The trouble with paying the ransom is that you incentivise further attacks on your network in the future.
Save your organisation from the debilitating repercussions of legal fines, reputational damage and financial costs of a ransomware attack in Australia, with InfoTrust’s award-winning and highly trusted cybersecurity technology and expert security services.
