Did you know…

• Global cyberattacks increased by 38% in 2022, compared to 2021. 83% of organisations had more than one data breach in 2022. 82% of all breaches involved 'the human element' (the use of stolen credentials, phishing, misuse or human error) in 2022.

• Phishing attacks increased by 61% in 2022.

• Email is still by far and away the most common attack vector (96% of breaches leverage phishing or malicious attachment as the first phase of an advanced, multi-staged attack).

• According to the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s latest threat report, the agency received 67,500 cybercrime reports in the 2020-2021 financial year – up 13% on the previous year. That equates to one report every eight minutes.
