The Cybercrime Survey 2021 shows that organised criminals now pose the greatest threat in relation to cyber and information security. As many as 78 % of respondents consider organised criminals to be among the greatest cyberthreats, which is the highest number in the history of the Cybercrime Survey. Likewise, the Centre for Cyber Security estimates that the cybercrime threat is ‘very serious’ in Denmark, just as it has found cybercriminals to be developing their skills and launching new types of attack. This applies, for example, to the criminals behind ransomware attacks, who are increasingly using advanced types of attack.
The number of CXOs who are concerned about a security incident resulting in a financial loss, the organisation’s confidential information being compromised or stolen, or unauthorised access to personal data has also increased compared to last year.
