Your company is more vulnerable to cyber attacks this holiday season than you think – and it’s not just because your team is distracted.
While your employees juggle work and holiday plans on less secure networks, cybercriminals are gearing up. Last December saw a 46% spike in phishing attacks compared to monthly averages. Even more concerning? 86% of organizations faced ransomware attacks during holidays or weekends.
Think about it: reduced IT staff, remote work chaos, and a flood of holiday-themed phishing emails create the perfect storm for hackers. That “amazing holiday deal” in your inbox? It might be ransomware in disguise.
But here’s what most companies miss: these attacks aren’t inevitable. With proper security measures – from robust threat detection to smart access management – you can keep the holidays merry and your data secure.
