(Trendmicro 2013) 60% Of data breaches are at companies with <100 employees Businesses that lose critical data typically go out of business within 6 months of the disaster. (Verizon 2013 Data Breach Report) 30K 10K # of websites the get hacked every day Majority of these sites are legitimate small businesses that are unknowingly distributing malicious code for the cyber criminals.

15 Case Study

16 Case In Point:.htaccess Attacks What is it? Using the.htaccess file, hackers can redirect web visitors to another website.
