In a recent study spanning from February 2005 to March 2006, SecureWorks saw 67% more Internet attacks attempted against its credit union clients than its banking clients. SecureWorks’ credit union clients range from large ($500 million to billions in assets) to smaller organizations (under $500 million in assets). SecureWorks CTO Jon Ramsey theorizes that their credit union clients are experiencing more Internet attacks than their banking clients because hackers assume that credit unions’ networks are less protected than banks.
