![Cyber Security: why it matters in the "new normal"](/backoffice/uploads/NEWS FLORENCE ONE_1606729324__1687248207_.jpg)
2020 has put many systems to the test by testing their resistance to the unexpected not only in terms of the economic factor but also their level of security.
Speaking of security, at our expense we have had proof of the sometimes neglected importance of computer security systems for safeguarding both personal and corporate digital identity, even more so if we are forced to become increasingly smarter for obvious reasons. vicissitudes.
In this article we refer to the "Crime index" report published in the Sole 24Ore which offers us important data that confirm the previous observation. Let's pay attention to the item "cyber crimes" which occupy the first position with a worrying surge of 23.3% compared to 2019 (in the same period). The apparently simple motivation lies precisely in moving the main activities to online and cloud platforms, which certainly bring incredible advantages but expose us to new dangers and therefore to new responsibilities. The podium is completed with usury crimes at 9.8% and smuggling at 6.7%; on the other hand, thefts and robberies have decreased.
Data in hand shows that in order to face the "new normal" made up of remote schooling, teleworking and increasingly digitized companies, it is necessary to have powerful cyber security software not only capable of blocking threats but also of preventing them. The consequences of any theft or loss of sensitive data may be too great for us to take the risk.
