Symantec have published their Intelligence report that sums up the latest threat trends for October 2013.
Report highlights:
- This month saw one of the largest data breaches in a number of years, where as many as 150 million identities were exposed due to one breach.
- October saw a fivefold increase in targeted attacks compared to last month, even surpassing this time of year in 2011 and 2012, though still much lower than the summer peak.
- The total number of mobile vulnerabilities disclosed dropped significantly. In September a major update to a popular mobile operating system addressed a number of vulnerabilities, raising the count for that month.
