New Zealand: over a third of cyber attacks come from state-sponsored hackers

New Zealands National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) reports that 38% of 339 incidents it responded to in the year since 30 June 2018 were likely from state-sponsored hackers. NCSC revealed the detail in its annual Cyber Threat Report released last week, following equivalent reports released in October by the Australian Cyber Security Center (ACSC) and the UK’s National Cyber. Security Centre said most pre-compromise incidents in New Zealand occurred through phishing, compromised websites, credential harvesting and brute force attempts.”]
