Sondajul global pentru ransomware pentru IMM-uri OpenText Security Solutions dezvăluie o îngrijorare sporită cu privire la creșterea atacurilor cibernetice din cauza tensiunilor geopolitice

WATERLOO, ON, 7 noiembrie 2022 /PRNewswire/ - OpenText™ (NASDAQ: OTEX),
(TSX: OTEX), today released results of the OpenText Security Solutions
2022 Global Small-Medium Business (SMB) Ransomware Survey. Findings show
growing concern about ransomware attacks, the impact of geopolitical
tensions, and rising inflation rates. Eighty-eight percent of respondents
noted they are concerned or extremely concerned about an attack
impacting their business.

“SMBs are a sweet spot for hackers to exploit because they often lack
cybersecurity resources, both technology and security expertise,” said Prentiss Donohue,
Executive Vice President, OpenText Security Solutions. “Today’s complex
threat landscape presents a huge risk to SMBs that don’t have
sufficient cyber resiliency preparation to stop the spread and recover
quickly from an attack. With adversaries becoming increasingly
sophisticated and relentless, a multi-layered protection strategy is no
longer a nice to have, it is a necessity.”

Constatări în centrul atenției:

IMM-urile se tem de înăsprirea bugetelor de securitate pe fondul îngrijorării crescânde cu privire la riscurile crescute de ransomware din cauza geopoliticului sporit. tensiuni.

• Mai mult de jumătate (57%) dintre IMM-uri sunt îngrijorați de scăderea bugetului lor de securitate cibernetică pe fondul creșterii ratelor inflației.
• Cincizeci și doi la sută dintre respondenți se simt mai expuși riscului de a suferi un atac ransomware din cauza tensiunilor geopolitice crescute.
• Optzeci și patru la sută sunt îngrijorați de un atac ransomware care le afectează afacerea.

knowing if they’ve suffered a ransomware attack. Meanwhile, budgets to
protect against these risks are low.

• Nearly half (46%) of SMBs have experienced a ransomware attack, yet
  67% still don’t think or aren’t sure they are a ransomware target.
• Majoritatea (60%) dintre respondenți nu sunt încrezători sau doar oarecum încrezători că pot evita un atac ransomware.
• În ciuda faptului că mulți au suferit un atac înainte, bugetele de securitate sunt minime pentru a fi protejate împotriva ransomware-ului și a altor amenințări:
• 60% cheltuiesc mai puțin de 50,000 USD pe an.
• 50% cheltuiesc mai puțin de 20,000 USD pe an.
• Doar 10% cheltuiesc mai mult de 50,000 USD pe an.

Furnizorii de servicii gestionate (MSP) sunt o opțiune de securitate atrăgătoare pentru IMM-uri pentru a compensa constrângerile de resurse.

• Mai multe IMM-uri își externalizează securitatea către un furnizor IT sau MSP decât nu, cu 58% folosind suport extern pentru managementul securității.
• Concurrently, 65% of SMBs that don’t currently use a MSP would consider doing so in the future.
