Although Switzerland is below the European average of 1764 attacks, it remains under significant pressure.<\/p>\n

The energy and utilities sector was once again particularly affected in February, followed by retail and public administration. In Germany, the figure was 1345 attacks per week, in Austria it was as high as 1785.<\/p>\n

An average of 2086 cyberattacks per week were registered per organization worldwide. Educational institutions, public authorities and telecommunications companies are still considered to be particularly at risk.<\/p>\n
