Cyberattacks detected in Japan doubled to 25.7 billion in 2014, according to The Japan Times. That’s over 100,000 “attacks” per sensor per year, or nearly 300 per sensor a day. I am not a fan of the way many media sources cite “statistics” on digital security incidents. I’ve noted before that any “statistic” using the terms “millions” or “billions” to describe “attacks” is probably worthless. But talking about individual “attacks,” especially when counting them discretely, is outmoded thinking.”]
