Cryptojacking is a growing threat against the security of the siber and personal. The great advantage of increasingly encourage criminals to menginfiltrasi just about anything, ranging from a home PC to a giant data center<

ISTR Symantec provide a view of the threat landscape, including information on the activities of the global threat, siber crime trends and motivations of attackers.

The report analyzes data from the Symantec Global Intelligence Network ™, i.e. the network that gathers the world's largest civil threat. ISTR also noted the activities of 126.5 million sensors in the world and monitor the activities of the threat in more than 157 countries and territories. Some important findings include:

Detection of a coin on miners computer endpoints increase 8.500 percent in 2017. What is the position of Indonesia in addition crypto?
