Indusface records 20 pc increase in cyber attacks on its Indian clients in 2024
NEW DELHI: (Apr 15) A 20 per cent rise has been seen in the number of cyber attacks on Indian clients in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter, IT security firm Indusface said on Tuesday.
The company claimed that it blocked more than 7.15 billion cyber attacks on its client base in India.
“The cyberattacks in India grew by 20 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2024. In 2024, the holiday season witnessed 132 per cent higher attacks as compared to a usual day, as cybercriminals tried to take advantage of reduced security monitoring, increased online transactions, and delayed patching due to holiday code freeze,” the company said in a report.
