Don’t think your business is a target? Think again cybercriminals

It’s easy to assume cyber criminals only go after large corporations with deep pockets. Research suggests otherwise: attackers are targeting businesses of every size, from small independent shops to multinationals, and their tool of choice is the botnet.

A botnet is a hidden network of hijacked devices, all controlled by a single criminal operator. Those devices can be anything from ordinary computers to smart appliances, and even a smart fridge could be drawn into an attack. Watch the video to see why botnets matter, even if you’ve never thought of your business as a likely target.
