There was a huge jump in the number of threats targeting small and medium-sized businesses in Việt Nam in the first half of the year, according to Kaspersky and Fortinet.
The number of detections of web threats in Viet Nam fell by more than 30 per cent last year compared to 2018, with 75 million different Internet-borne cyberthreats.
The number of internet-borne cyberthreats in Viet Nam in the fourth quarter of 2019 decreased more than 50 per cent compared to the same period in 2018, according to Kaspersky Security Bulletin Q4 2019.
Kaspersky Lab has launched Kaspersky Security Cloud, an adaptive protection service that goes even further than conventional antivirus to protect users from problems they may encounter in the digital world.
Viet Nam has recently become the main target of a series of large-scale
cyber spying activities, such as LURID, Operation Shady RAT and the
Byzantine Hades attacks.
Viet Nam, along with the US, India and Germany, have the greatest
number of Internet users affected by phishing attacks, with the total
number doubling since last year, computer security company Kaspersky Lab
says.
