As the brightest and best in information security gather at the RSA Conference in San Francisco, a number of industry reports are being released.
Just as physical security manufacturers clamour for their new products to be seen every May at IFSEC International, so too do cybersecurity experts clamour for their knowledge to be seen.
And so it is that we share with you PandaLabs’ look back at cybersecurity in 2012, presented here in the now-ubiquitous format of infographic.
Here are some of the 2012 highlights:
- Six million passwords were stolen in the massive LinkedIn security breach.
- China was the world’s most malware-infected country (in percentage terms), while Sweden was the least.
- Every day, an average of 74,000 new examples of malware were discovered.
- Almost 32 percent of the computers that PandaLabs scanned were infected with malware.
