It’s time to publish the statistics derived from the Cyber Attacks Timelines of June.
Let’s start from the Daily Trend chart. June has shown quite a sustained level of activity (the most active month so far), concentrated primarily in the central week.
As always, cyber crime ranks on top of the Motivations Behind Attacks chart with 69.1% (a light increase from 66.7% of May). Hacktivism falls back to the levels of April (15.5%, it was 20.4% in May). Cyber Espionage drops to 9.1% from 9.1% of May, whereas Cyberwarfare soars to 6.4% from 1.1% in May.
Account Hijacking ranks on top of the known Attack Vectors with 14.5%, a consequence of the wave of celebrities who had their social media account hijacked. DDoS and targeted attacks follow with 12.7% each.
As usual, Industries lead the Distribution of Targets chart with 24.5% (was 21.5% in May), ahead of Organizations (14.5%), Single Individuals (10.9%, again an effect of the attacks against social media accounts) and Governments (10%).
For the second month in a row, the Industry Drill Down chart sees Software companies on top.
And finally “thanks” mostly to Guccifer 2.0 and his leaks, Political Parties rank on top of the Organization Drill Down chart.
