Online criminals, industrial spies and fraudsters are constantly developing new ways to bypass
conventional security defences and make money. In the last year, virtually every company suffered at
least one IT security incident. Smaller companies are often targeted for industrial espionage because
they are part of a larger company’s supply chain or because attackers can use emails from one company
to infect another- on average companies suffered 45 of these very incidents. However, it’s the cost of
dealing with these problems that is truly shocking; the average cost of the worst incident was
£280-690,000.
While the majority of companies have some kind of protection against traditional malware and other
internet threats, it’s clear that standard protection isn’t providing the total cover required to
combat the worst threats- advanced, instantaneous technology in needed- Complacency and business as
usual is not an option.
This whitepaper looks at the ever-changing world of online threats and ways
businesses can cost-effectively minimise their risk.
