The first timeline of February is here! I am happy to introduce the "Breachometer", a counter that measures how the current timeline stacks up with the values recorded in the previous 12 months.
It’s time to publish the second timeline of January 2021 covering the main cyber attacks occurred in the second half of this month. In this timeline, I have collected...
I am happy to announce that starting from this first blog post, I have introduced an important change. Now the list of cyber attacks is a real interactive timeline.

The first cyber attacks timeline of October is here! This list contains 100 events (including 7 occurred before), a number very close to the one recorded in the previous month (100). Needless to say, ransomware continues...
