A fifth of the companies listed on the S&P 500 index suffered a cyberattack in 2023, a report from SecurityScorecard has claimed, stating a mix of poor cybersecurity practices, high company valuations, and stringent regulations, resulted in such alarmingly high statistics.
SecurityScorecard says that 21% of these companies experienced a breach, as they are “particularly valuable” targets to cybercriminals based on their stocks’ market value.
