8.4 Percent Increase in Brute-Force Attacks in France

There’s no denying of facts — the amount of automated hacking attempts in France has increased slightly throughout the previous 14 days. The automated hacking attempts have climbed up by 8.4 percent in the course of the last fortnight, according to evidence from Windows servers secured by Syspeace. However, there was a slight decrease of 11 percent in the whole world.

The sum total of attacks on Syspeace-secured Windows Servers increased slightly during the last fortnight in France as 810 brute-force attacks per Windows servers were documented by Syspeace. That is to say, the automated hacking attempts grew slightly by 8.4 percent. That means 16,000 total the number of automated hacking attempts in the France during the past two weeks were blocked by Syspeace.

For the sake of comparison, Poland and Turkey have been under increased attacks. With 290 blocked automated hacking attempts per Syspeace-secured server the last fortnight, Poland has seen an increase of 8.9 percent in comparison with the two weeks prior. In Turkey, the sum total has risen by 8.2 percent to 2,300 automated hacking attempts per Syspeace-secured server.

France is under increasing attacks, but at the same time the attacks on Windows servers secured by Syspeace have decreased all around the world. The brute-force attacks on Syspeace-secured Windows Servers have dropped by 11 percent in the world in the last fortnight. By now, this year there have been 1,700 automated hacking attempts per Syspeace-secured server in the world. The automated hacking attempts have risen by 5.5 percent on a year-to-year comparison. Simply put, the number of brute-force attacks blocked by Syspeace in the world was 1,600,000.

The data is released from Syspeace, a company that helps fight brute-force attacks. Syspeace saves firms time, effort, and money by blocking attacks that otherwise take many hours of repetitive, manual labor to detect and prevent. Syspeace tracks all the global Windows servers secured by Syspeace conscientiously. The company is a global innovator on the topic since 2012, having collected and analyzed information on automated hacking attempts.

During the brute-force attack, an attacker submits many passwords or passphrases, hoping to eventually get them right. Each and every possible password and passphrase is systematically inspected to find the right one.

To avoid trouble and block brute-force attacks, Syspeace offers software that shields companies from IT theft, combined with exceptional customer support.
