In the past five years, cybercrime has exploded to become a trillion-dollar issue globally. Cybercriminals are now profitably attacking organizations of all sizes.
Why?
Cyber attacks are so effective because cybercriminals just need to look for a single way in. They just need to trick a single employee into opening a malicious file for an entire company’s systems and data to be held hostage. Ransomware now holds a company hostage every 10 seconds and costs on average $1.85 million to remediate.
Upfort was founded to level the playing field against cybercriminals.
To accelerate the world’s journey to cyber resilience
To accomplish that, we build easy-to-use cybersecurity tools that empower small and medium-sized businesses to train and protect their employees and data against cybercrime effectively.
Many people think of cyber threats as hackers in hoodies cracking into systems. That’s actually only a small part of the big picture. As IBM noted in their Cyber Security Intelligence Index Report, "human error was a major contributing cause in 95% of all breaches."
