How to deal with cyberattacks this holiday season
Tripwire
The holiday season has arrived, and cyberattacks are expected to increase with the upcoming celebratory events. According to The Retail & Hospitality Information Sharing and Analysis Center (RH-ISAC) 2022 Holiday Season Threat Trends and summary report, ransomware and phishing attacks are expected to increase in retail. With the FIFA World Cup 2022, many cybersecurity experts have advised heightened caution about online impersonation scams and phishing campaigns. Looking back at 2021, studies show a 30% increase in ransomware attacks, and a 70% increase in attempted ransomware attacks during the holiday season, compared to the monthly average. It is clear that the holiday season exposes many organizations to an increased risk of cyberattacks.
