Ponemon study: Cyber attacks more frequent, severe

Posted on June 23, 2011 by Dissent

Tim Greene reports:

Cyber attacks are becoming more frequent and severe, and the vast majority of businesses have suffered at least one data breach in the past year, a Ponemon Institute survey says.

According to the survey, 77% of respondents say attacks have been more severe or more difficult to prevent over the past 12 to 18 months, while 78% say attacks are more frequent. The survey was sponsored by Juniper Networks.
