By all accounts, 2020 and 2021 have been some of the worst years for cybercrime as hackers pounce at the opportunities presented to them by the pandemic and a distributed workforce.
“It’s the year of the cyberattack,” said Paul Savas, vice president of Comcast Business, in an interview with the Hartford Business Journal.
Savas spoke about the sheer scale of recent cyberattacks that have had massive impacts, including the ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline this spring that fueled price increases at the pump and caused some to stock up on gasoline.
