“When researching these new statistics, we found that web browser threats represented a large number of the attacks attempted against our clients, particularly our utility customers,” said Wayne Haber, director of development at SecureWorks, in a statement.
SecureWorks urged utility providers to implement internet usage policies for their employees, regularly update security software and educate workers on the latest social engineering tactics used by attackers.
The US-based corporation has over 1,800 clients including 100 utility providers.
