Czech Republic Sees 77 Percent Increase in Automated Hacking Attempts

During the last fortnight, Czech Republic has seen how the sum total of automated hacking attempts has skyrocketed. According to evidence from Windows servers secured by Syspeace, there was a growth of 77 percent in automated hacking attempts per server. However, there was a slight fall of 16 percent in the whole world.

In Czech Republic, the number of attacks on Windows servers secured by Syspeace shot up through the previous 14 days as 3,500 automated hacking attempts per Windows servers were documented by Syspeace. Simply put, the brute-force attacks soared by 77 percent. The number of automated hacking attempts blocked by Syspeace in Czech Republic was 9,100. In a single 14-day period in the country’s measured history, this is the highest number of automated hacking attempts per Syspeace-secured Windows Server.

There has been, for comparison, a surge of the number of brute-force attacks in Spain and Iceland. With 360 blocked automated hacking attempts per Syspeace-secured server the last fortnight, Spain has witnessed a climb of 120 percent in comparison with the previous 14-day period. In Iceland, the sum total has shot up by 60 percent to 69 automated hacking attempts per Syspeace-secured server.

Czech Republic is under increasing attacks, but at the same time the attacks on Windows servers secured by Syspeace have decreased all around the world. There have been 16 percent less automated hacking attempts in the world on Windows servers secured by Syspeace through the 14 days prior compared to the last fortnight. By now, this year there have been 2,500 automated hacking attempts per Windows server secured by Syspeace in the world. Throughout the same period last year, the number of automated hacking attempts has shot up by 9.4 percent. That is to say, Syspeace blocked 2,200,000 brute-force attacks in the world.

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

An brute-force attack consists of an attacker submitting many passwords or passphrases with the hope of in the end guessing them. The attacker systematically checks all possible passwords and passphrases and tries to find the right one.

To keep trouble out and block automated hacking attempts, Syspeace offers software that protects firms from IT theft, combined with exceptional customer support.
