Cyberattacks can impact any organization, big or small.

Large enterprises are often more tempting targets due to the vast amount of lucrative data they hold.

A new report from cybersecurity firm Anomali reveals an increase in successful cyberattacks and offers ideas on how organizations can better protect themselves.

Among the respondents, 87% said that their organizations were victims of successful cyberattacks sometime over the past three years.

In 2020, that percentage almost doubled to 28%. As cyberattacks have grown more sophisticated and effective, security has become a greater challenge.

"We were encouraged to learn that many organizations are devoting more resources to cybersecurity and adopting new technologies to become more resilient. We were also deeply concerned over how difficult it is for them to detect and respond to attackers before and after they've made their way into networks."
