Fundamental Change in Attack Surface in the COVID-19 Period

Cyber attackers, who take every crisis as an opportunity, see the pandemic period as an opportunity and intensify their attacks every day to take advantage of the security risks of working remotely. In this rapidly developing process, most companies and public institutions have put more workload on cyber security experts, who are quite limited, with the introduction of the remote working model without adequate security tests. More familiar with remote working than anyone else, hackers are also rapidly updating the nature of their attacks.

We have entered a cyber world where a cybercrime is committed every 39 seconds, there is an increase of approximately 300% in crimes, and DDoS attacks have increased 3 times compared to the same period of the previous year. With the headwind of COVID-19, the global cost of cybercrime is expected to reach $6 trillion by the end of 2021.

E-bebek and Penti are among the most important attacks that took place in our country last month. It is seen that more than 26 percent of the ransomware attacks that can be detected in the world recently took place in Turkey. According to some reports, Türkiye ranks first among all countries.
