About 60% of the personal computers in India were vulnerable to cyber-attacks. As many as 18% of routers, 17% phones, 14% printers, 25% network associated storages, 4% security cameras and 2% media boxes too were vulnerable to threats in India. As per the report India continues to be second most impacted by spam and bots, third most impacted by network attacks and fourth most impacted by ransomwares. The situation was not like in Hong Kong, where about 45% of personal computers were vulnerable to cyber-attacks. The percentage for China, U.S.A and Singapore were 39%, 38% and 33% respectively.

Tarun kaura, Director, Enterprise Security Product Management, Asia Pacific and Japan at Symantec says :-

“Cryptojacking is a rising threat to cyber and personal security “The massive profit incentive puts people, devices and organisations at risk of unauthorized coin-miners siphoning resources from their systems, further motivating criminals to infiltrate everything from home PCs to giant data centers.”

Already most countries are taking precaution especially when it comes to hardware devices. But government-enabled regulations can prevent cyber-attacks with the growth of Internet of Things.
