At Redscan, we’ve set about shining light on some of these challenges by analysing how the crisis has affected online search behaviour in relation to cyber security and technology. The findings provide insight into how well-prepared businesses were for such an incident, the tools organisations are turning to support operations, and potential threats they are facing.
The world is currently gripped by the spread of Covid-19, more commonly referred to as coronavirus, and unsurprisingly, cybercriminals are making the most of the situation and public uncertainty through phishing scams.
