Cyber attacks: Stronger, faster and more sophisticated

Cyber attacks are becoming faster, more frequent and more sophisticated. This short video looks at findings from a cyber security analysis, including a measure called breakout time: how long it takes an intruder to spread further through a network after first breaking in. The analysis found this had fallen to an average of just 62 minutes, down from 84 minutes the year before.

For a small business, that leaves very little time to spot an intruder and stop them before real damage is done. It’s a useful reminder of why keeping attackers out in the first place, and noticing quickly when something is wrong, matters so much.
