Cyber novices: One third of Irish firms are unprepared for online security breaches
39% of Irish companies suffered a cyber attack in the past 12 months, with 70% of those companies targeted more than once.
Ireland had the largest proportion of firms that are not as well prepared for a cyberattack, according to a new global study on security.
The proportion of businesses targeted by cybercriminals in the past year increased globally from 38% to 43%, according to the Hiscox Cyber Readiness Report 2021, with over a quarter of those targeted (28%) experiencing five attacks or more.
