At the Kaspersky Cyber Security Weekend event, Kaspersky has shown some interesting details about cyber attack patterns specifically for the Asia Pacific market.From January to July 2024, Kaspersky Labs reported that they prevented 245 million online attacks, 340 million attacks from downloaded malware, 2.76 million password thieves (keyloggers), 1.29 million ransomware attacks and more.During these months as well, Malaysia was seen as one of the five countries in the Asia Pacific market that showed the highest number of malware attacks, in fourth place, with 31.4 percent of local consumers and businesses affected by these online hacking attacks. .The number of malicious hosts (computers used to initiate cyber attacks) has also increased in the APAC region, with Singapore, Japan and Australia recording the highest number of malicious hosts.Up to 0.97 percent of computers and gaming machines in Singapore are used as hosts for this malware. This may happen where these components are hacked remotely, and because they are not used for other purposes, they are easily accessible and used for various malicious purposes.Even more interesting, this year the number of smart devices affected by hacking attacks and malware is also increasing. Based on users of Kaspersky Labs security software for smart devices, the three countries that show the highest detection of malware on smart devices in Asia Pacific include Taiwan (51.67%), China (17.04%) and India 9.88%).22.2 percent of affected users found banking trojan software on their devices while 16.9 percent found password-stealing keylogger software. Meanwhile, banking trojan software was found to be the highest malware detected when compared to other malware on smart devices.These malicious software may be downloaded through applications downloaded by third parties, or software that does not pass the standards of the Apple or Google application stores.This shows the importance in understanding that no device in the world today is completely safe from malware attacks. It is the individual's responsibility to ensure that their devices are safe to use.
