According to a report released by Seqrite, Indian enterprises were affected by over 2.8 lakh cyber threats every day in Q3 2018, with a total of 2.6 crore such threats in the three months, reports The Tribune.
Seqrite is the enterprise security arm of Quick Heal Technologies, an IT security solutions provider headquartered in Pune, India.
“There is no denying that enterprises face an unparalleled security challenge today. Growing interconnectivity has demolished traditional security perimetres. Every endpoint, every node, every device connected to enterprise networks has become a point of entry for attackers looking to steal invaluable information and disrupt business operations,” said Sanjay Katkar, Chief Technology Officer of the company.
Earlier a study had noted that Indian companies had lost about half a million US dollars due to cyber attacks over a period of 18 months. However, according to another survey, security managers at Indian firms appear to be ‘over-confident’ about their cyber-security measures, despite steady growth in data breaches recently.
