Cyber ​​protection is superior to cyber attacks

True, this fact prepared the 2nd countries quite well for the rejection of cyber attacks in general, and when compared with other countries, then their separation is significant. And the total number of countries indicated in the report – 23. They are commissioned, according to a peculiar level of cybersecurity. And not a single country received the highest rating-5 stars that the authors argued with a significant level of cybercriminals, significantly ahead of the level of protection against them. If we talk about a more global, global scale, then countries such as Finland, Sweden and Israel received an assessment of 4.5 stars. While the leading world powers, including the UK, Germany and the USA, only 4 stars were received. And the worst prepared for the cyber attacks of Mexico, Brazil and India.

As the technical director of McAfee for the public sector noted – Schnek Fillis – not one of the world countries is ahead, since while the “bad guys” are more smart and fast than the “good”. To date, according to her, cybercriminals may not think about compliance with their tools with the established various standards. Also, they do not need to worry about protecting their data, immediately turning into the “attack” phase. And this, you see, is a significant handicap. In addition, Schnek noted that at the moment the governments are forced to resist cybercriminals who have no boundaries and are not obliged to meet with each other in order to coordinate their further action, while “good guys” need to do this.

It is worth noting that the Brussels organization of SDA was interviewed by approximately 80 experts in the field of cybersecurity for the necessary report, attaching a brief interview with the 250th IT specialists working in the public sector. And 57 % of them stated that the race for cyber weapons has already started, the same percent said that the effectiveness of cyber weapons in the 21st century would even more efficiently have nuclear missiles, and another 45 % noted that cybersecurity must be made the main priority world countries. And most of all the attention of experts was focused on creating an effective system for exchanging alerts and data on cyberosis.
