Malware Momentum

Kaspersky Cyberstats

If you ever doubted the veracity about the sheer volume of cyber attacks that take place globally in any given hour, take a look at the Kaspersky Cyberstat portal.

70% of malware is AdWare and 15% are trojans.

The  volume of emails sent in the day and numbers of births & deaths also make for quiet reflection.

When it comes to countries that spam generation, China remains way out it front.  They generate almost twice as much as the second placegetter, the USA.

At time of writing there have been more than 37 million new internet users in 2014; a ripe crop for potential spammers and malware malcontents.

Mak'in Bacon

Can one make a case for Bacon?

Both SPAM and Bacon are  'meaty subjects' and this is no coincidence. As this infographic demonstrates it would take a staggering 52,000 years to unsubscribe from all of the Bacon sent to the world's in-boxes in one day.

It is projected that Bacon will account for 80% of your incoming email by year's end and no, I am not telling 'porkies'!

So Bacon may well be legitimate email but too much of it will give you in-box thrombosis.
