In its monthly analysis of the latest data breaches and cyberattacks across the world, IT Governance has identified 78 publicly disclosed security incidents in December 2022 – resulting in 31,586,757 compromised records.
Compared to November 2022, there is a slight decline where the organisation identified 95 publicly disclosed security incidents and 32,051,144 compromised records.
Alan Calder, Founder and Chairman of IT Governance, said: “Although November was a particularly bad month for security, December still shows an unnerving level of incidents.
“Investment in strong cyberdefence in depth is so important to ensure you can withstand a breach, not just during the holiday period, but throughout the year.”
