"Retail companies are becoming increasingly popular targets as most important process volumes of personal information, including credit card data in highly distributed environments with many terminals and point of service terminals, "said Rory Duncan, Business Unit safety manager at Dimension Data UK. " These diverse environments can be difficult to protect. "

65% of attacks came from within the US IP addresses. However, hackers behind these attacks could be located anywhere in the world. cybercriminals adopt low-cost, highly available and geographically strategic infrastructure to carry out activities malicious.

"the sectors of retail and financial process large volumes of personal information and credit card data," said Matthew Gyde, Executive Group of dimension Data - security .

Cybercriminals are increasingly leveraging malware to breach the perimeter defenses of organizations. In 2015, there was a 18% increase in malware in all sectors, excluding the education sector

The frequency and complexity of malware becomes more stealthy and sophisticated. As organizations grow sandboxes (software that performs the suspect code in a highly protected environment and review its activities) to better understand the cybercriminal tactics to protect against attacks at the same time , malicious software developers are aggressively developing anti-sandbox techniques.
