2023 Comcast Business Small Business Cybersecurity Report

Our second annual Comcast Business Small Business Cybersecurity Report provides an inside look at the current cyber threat landscape, through anonymized threat data gathered from fixed and mobile devices using our SecurityEdge™ service from July 2022 to June 2023.

With more devices than ever connected to the Internet, cybercrime has become a booming business. Criminals anywhere in the world can launch exploits at any time, against any targets they want, thanks to the ready availability of online tools that make it simple to modify their exploits and avoid detection.

Over twelve months (Q3 2022 to Q2 2023) Comcast Business tracked cyber threats through its SecurityEdge™ cybersecurity service and found that small businesses were under regular threat from cyber attacks. In Q2 2023 alone for example, SecurityEdge™ CyberSolutions lists were updated by an average of nearly 68,000 phishing entries, over 165,000 malware entries and nearly 63,000 bot entries each day (rounded to the nearest thousand).
