2 Cybersecurity Stocks Worth Buying in 2022
If there's one thing thriving during the pandemic, it's cybercrime. The work-from-home trend has created an appetizing target for hackers, as employees have often accessed secure company networks from devices that may not be fitted with the same protection as those in the office.
In the first half of 2021, a total of 1,097 organizations were hit with ransomware attacks worldwide, with cybercriminals seizing networks and critical data with the goal of extracting payment from their victims. By comparison, 1,112 organizations were hit by these attacks in the whole of 2020.
