Did You Know That Over 70% Of Cybersecurity Breaches Are The Work Of Organized Crime Groups?
Recent cybersecurity intelligence reveals that over 70% of data breaches are carried out by organized crime groups, making them the dominant force behind most cyberattacks worldwide. These groups are no longer lone hackers in dark rooms — they are well-funded, highly coordinated syndicates that operate much like legitimate businesses, with defined roles, hierarchies, and targets.
Among their most effective tools are keylogging and screen capture malware, which serve as silent but deadly instruments for stealing sensitive data. Once a device is compromised — often through phishing emails or compromised websites — these tools operate in the background, recording every keystroke and capturing images of the user’s screen at regular intervals. This allows attackers to harvest login credentials, banking information, confidential communications, and even multi-factor authentication codes without detection.
These malware types are particularly favored by organized crime groups because they’re low-cost, scalable, and extremely effective. They allow criminals to bypass traditional security defenses, quietly infiltrating systems and exfiltrating data over extended periods — often going unnoticed until the damage is done.
When combined with the earlier finding that 95% of breaches involve human error, it becomes clear that cybercrime is not just a technical challenge, but a behavioral and organizational one. Businesses must recognize that they are not just defending against random hackers, but against professional criminal enterprises. Combating them requires more than firewalls and antivirus software — it demands employee vigilance, real-time threat monitoring, and a proactive security culture across the organization.
