[QUOTE="brigantes, post: 894193, member: 88084"] 90+ % of the most serious attacks resulting in financial losses is due to hacks and attacks on 3rd party enterprise systems that store valuable personal data. If one has the funds, there are really expensive statistical reports that clearly show the reality of attacks on systems and the cumulative results. IT security news needs ad revenue to make money. Ad revenue is dependent upon the number of clicks. Nothing generates more clicks than sensationalism, dis-information, fake news, extremism, embellishing the facts, and outright lies. The IT security news has a vested interest in blowing everything out of proportion and fear mongering. Meanwhile the numbers do not substantiate most anything that gets hyped out there in the IT security news. [/QUOTE]
