A recent survey reveals that more than half of Thai organisations have experienced over 10 cyberattack incidents in the past year, leading to significant financial losses. The report, released by US-based cloud connectivity firm Cloudflare Inc., highlights the urgent need for Thai businesses to strengthen their cybersecurity infrastructure.

 

According to a data breach report commissioned by IBM, the global average cost of a breach this year reached an all-time high of US$4.45 million.

 

“Over the past year, we’ve witnessed a rise in cybersecurity incidents across the Asia-Pacific, with a huge proportion targeting businesses in Thailand, more than anywhere else in the region,” said Jonathon Dixon, Cloudflare’s vice president and managing director for Asia-Pacific, Japan and China.

 

The Securing the Future: Asia Pacific Cybersecurity Readiness Survey report was compiled by Sandpiper Communications on behalf of Cloudflare. The survey involved 4,009 cybersecurity decision-makers and leaders from small to large companies across 14 markets in the Asia-Pacific region, including Thailand.
