Slight Increase in Automated Hacking Attempts in France

In the course of the previous 14-day period, the number of automated hacking attempts in France grew slightly compared to the past two weeks. The brute-force attacks have gone up by 4.2 percent throughout the 14 days prior, according to information from Syspeace-secured Windows Servers. However, there was no change in the number of brute-force attacks in the whole world.

In France, the amount of attacks on Windows servers secured by Syspeace went up slightly during the two weeks prior as 2,500 brute-force attacks per Windows servers were recorded by Syspeace. That means the automated hacking attempts increased by 4.2 percent. That means 53,000 total the number of brute-force attacks in the France in the course of the 14 days prior were blocked by Syspeace. During a single 14-day period in the country’s measured history, this is the 9th highest number of automated hacking attempts per Windows server secured by Syspeace.

For comparison purposes, Spain and United Arab Emirates have been under increased attacks. With 370 blocked brute-force attacks per Windows server secured by Syspeace the 14 days prior, Spain has witnessed a surge of 13 percent compared to the two weeks prior. In United Arab Emirates, the sum total has shot up by 3.8 percent to 55 brute-force attacks per Windows server secured by Syspeace.

All around the world, automated hacking attempts on Syspeace-secured Windows Servers have been unchanged, but, as said, France has escalating problems. Up until today, this year there have been 1,800 brute-force attacks per Windows server secured by Syspeace in the world. The automated hacking attempts have increased by 9.4 percent on a year-to-year comparison. In other words, the amount of brute-force attacks blocked by Syspeace in the world was 1,600,000.

The evidence is released from Syspeace, a service provider that fights brute-force attacks. Syspeace wants to make the digital world safer for businesses, one server at a time. Having collected and analyzed evidence on automated hacking attempts since 2012, Syspeace is a global innovator on the topic. The company believes that cyber security management doesn’t have to be complicated and expensive.

During the automated hacking attempt, an attacker submits many passwords or passphrases, hoping to ultimately get them right. Each and every possible password and passphrase is systematically checked to find the right one.

To keep systems secure and block brute-force attacks, Syspeace provides software that safeguards firms from IT theft, combined with excellent customer support.
