Most NZ companies do not record being hacked Most Kiwi companies do not record
being hacked FintechNZ says, despite
Cert NZ’s latest report showing almost
1000 New Zealanders reported hacking
issues in the last quarter.
The Cert NZ report shows New Zealanders
from Invercargill to the Bay of
Islands suffered cyber security incidents,
with the most common account
types that attackers gained access
to were cloud services and email accounts.
Cert NZ received 992 reports of unauthorised
access in the latest quarter
involving business and personal email
accounts.
FintechNZ general manager James
Brown says it is positive for New Zealand
to see about 1000 incidents of
cyber being reported to Cert NZ, however
the bigger question is how many
are not being reported.
“We know that only six percent of Kiwi
companies have adequate protection,”
he says.
“We also know that there are some
fundamental basics that a company
can put in place with no or minimal
cost.
“People and staff still pose a great risk,
so cyber security issues need to be
high on the management agenda.
“About 90% of New Zealand businesses
are small to medium enterprises so
what would the impact be to them and
the economy if more incidents happened?
“We know that cyber incidents cost
New Zealand about $1.7 million in the
last quarter and phishing made up
45% of all incidents reported.
“But that’s only the ones that have
been recorded. Not every business
wants to advertise they have been
hacked for obvious reasons.
