Thanks for sharing the information about the Black hat survey results MGySgt (Join to see) about breaches in cybersecurity in US infrastructure.
"the Identity Theft Resource Center reported 698 major data breaches at different U.S. organizations. These numerous breaches represent over 10.2 million compromised records.
It is no secret that cybersecurity is in high demand. To gauge attitudes and plans of the industry's most experienced, highly trained, top professionals, Black Hat conducted a survey. With a margin of error of +/- 4 percent, Black Hat found a clear and imminent threat to the safety of critical infrastructure within the next 24 months.
Out of the 580 top cybersecurity and information technology professionals surveyed, 60 percent believe the U.S. will experience a successful cyberattack on critical infrastructure within the next two years. Of the remaining 40 percent, 30 percent chose to remain neutral on the matter while 10 percent believed the U.S.'s cyber defense would prevent any such attack."
