However, the overall rate of cyber crime, particularly phishing, remains stable. The study highlighted a troubling rise in ransomware incidents, which have doubled recently. Organizational size influences vulnerability, as larger businesses encounter more frequent cyber threats. Encouragingly, smaller businesses are adopting more robust cyber security measures, diminishing their vulnerability to attacks.
The proportion of businesses in the UK reporting cyber attacks dropped from 50% to 43% in the last year, attributed to improved cyber hygiene among small businesses.
