Is 'Cyber Pearl Harbor' Coming?
Tech expert warns electronic attacks on meteoric climb
WND
Sony gets hacked and a major movie project is disrupted. Xbox and Playstation systems are taken down. Millions of pages of names, addresses and other private information vanish into cyberspace so your routine includes getting an all-new credit-card number and security code.
And personally, you’re seeing a flood of computer-security ads, your inbox is full of information about threats, your computer anti-virus is going berserk putting quarantine on trojans and you wonder just what’s going on.
Exactly what it looks like, a surge in computer attacks like ever before. At least, according to a recognized expert in the field, Dan Lohrman, who has evaluated and analyzed the problem at GovTech.com.
He’s an internationally recognized cybersecurity leader, technologist and author and has held titles such as chief security officer, chief technology officer and more.
He joined Security Mentor, Inc. in August and he currently serves as the chief security officer and chief strategist for this award-winning training company.
“Don’t be surprised if you are seeing double,” he said. “While 2013 was also a big year, with Snowden’s disclosures and the Target breach during the holiday shopping season dominating last year’s news headlines, 2014 brought a 2X cyber growth.”
And with the cyber growth has come cyber crime.
He cites reports from CNN about hackers in Russia stealing 1.2 billion passwords, he looks at a report from Kaspersky Lab that says the number of corporate sector targets in 2014 is 2.4 times that of 2013, and also notes that “up to 1,800 corporate targets were discovered.” Also the industry reports $2 billion in cyber insurance policies were sold in 2014, up from $1 billion just a year ago.
