The year 2020 was truly a disruptive year, not just because of the global health crisis but also due to the increase of cybersecurity threats.

In fact, cybersecurity experts predict that in 2021, businesses can experience a cyberattack incident every 11 seconds.

As if a pandemic wasn't enough to disrupt business operations, the year 2020 also brought in new and even bigger cybersecurity threats.

The world is still experiencing the effects of the global pandemic that hit its peak in 2020.
