COVID-19 crisis being exploited by cyber criminals

Cayman Compass posted an article on May 29, 2020, about cyber criminals exploiting the COVID-19 crisis. Below are some key highlights:

  • For the most part, its role involves monitoring threats and advising businesses on how to guard themselves against attack
  • Protecting the territory from cyber-threats is part of the national security response to COVID-19.
  • The police cyber-team is not yet seeing a marked increase in reports of Cayman businesses being attacked.
  • They are concerns that the hype and fear around the health threat has made it easier to lure people into clicking on phishing scams with a fake coronavirus alert.
