Various cybersecurity attacks can be performed by hackers to enter a network, computer, or system like ransomware, malware, DDoS, phishing, or brute force attacks. In the U.S. one of the most common attacks is known as phishing where emails are sent to an account from an alleged legitimate source asking for your information. Hackers use this to gain sensitive information from targets to access their bank accounts, social security, or their social media. In the past few years, according to “IBM’s 2021 research cited a 2% rise in phishing attacks between 2019 and 2020, partly driven by COVID-19. CISCO’s 2021 report echoed this, stating that at least one person clicked a phishing link in around 86% of organizations.” Not only are phishing attacks becoming more common, but so is the amount of times someone is lured into falling into the attack increasing. A hacker could pretend to be your bank emailing you about your account and fool you into giving them your information for “security purposes” and just like that you can become vulnerable to cybercrime. Spain suffers from ransomware attacks as found by a CCN report, “remote access systems and other organizations have suffered are ransomware attacks, perhaps because of the profitability it still offers criminals.” Spain like numerous nations had to go digital amidst the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. That rapid digitization left the nation vulnerable to ransomware attacks which hackers took full advantage of. According to a different report published by the antivirus protection specialist, ESET published a cybersecurity report based on data from the last four months of 2021. “In it, he ranks Spain as the country that has suffered the most remote desktop attacks in the world, with a figure of over 51 billion.” 51 billion dollars is being lost by a developed nation due to remote desktop attacks if that is not petrifying I do not know what is!
