According to a new Kaspersky global study, the majority of cyber incidents occurred in financial organizations.
Usman Qureshi, Country representative for Pakistan at Kaspersky told Business Recorder that Malware is one of the most prevalent types of attacks in the world, and with the development of cyber security solutions, threat creators are searching for new ways to bypass security systems. We conduct research into our systems and our solutions to find weaknesses and develop and upgrade proactive counter technologies correspondingly.
Amid the current prevalence of malware attacks, Kaspersky’s anti-malware tools have achieved the highest possible rating in examination by independent security testing company SE Labs.
