INDIA IN THE EYE OF ATTACK

According to a report by SonicWall, India saw a 25 per cent increase in malware attacks in the first half of 2019, even as the global market saw a reduction in such attacks. It said though India registered a 62 per cent decline in reported cases of ransomware volume during this period, there was a huge increase in the number of encrypted attacks at 2.4 million, almost eclipsing the 2018 full-year total.
