Cyber risks targeting the country do not seem to diminish, with the number of cybercrimes having been reported to skyrocket by 500% during the pandemic.

In these circumstances, future enterprises are initiating to perceive the advantages of cybersecurity. Top-notch cybersecurity services, including cyber investigations and incident response engagements, have been the key drivers of Group-IB’s technological leadership enriching the company’s global threat intelligence for nearly two decades. Group-IB’s ecosystem of proprietary products provides comprehensive protection for the customers’ IT infrastructure against different types of threats, while the company’s service portfolio can be used to enhance organizations’ cybersecurity posture before, during and after a cyber incident.
