Cyber Security and Increasing Cyber Attacks
The rapid development of technology is increasing the number and severity of cyber attacks. Especially cloud computing, remote work ve yapay zeka The adoption of solutions makes it difficult to protect personal data. More than 2024 thousand cyber attacks were carried out in Turkey in the first half of 380. This situation leads to increased costs both in Turkey and worldwide.
Importance of Cyber Security Presidency
Founder and CEO of KOBIL Ismet Koyun, draws attention to the importance of establishing a Cyber Security Presidency in Turkey. Koyun emphasizes the importance of cyber security by saying, “Every country should have cyber protection forces, just like air, land and naval forces. Those who cannot protect their data cannot protect their country either.” Cyber security should not be limited to protecting data centers only; this A 360-degree approach It is a subject that requires.
Economic Losses and Impact of Cyber Attacks
İsmet Koyun states that the economic damage caused by cyber attacks will increase even more in 2025. “Security is no longer a need, it has become a vital necessity,” he says. There has been a 54% increase in cyber attacks in Turkey compared to the previous year. Globally, the cost of cyber attacks for 2023 is $8 trillionIt is expected to exceed this figure in 2024. 9 trillion dollars is predicted to rise.
Be Careful with the Security of SuperApps
Stating that they provide services to important organizations on a global level, Koyun said, “The cost of cyber attacks shows that security should be a priority in all sectors that adopt technology.” Ransomware payments in 2023 To 1,1 billion dollars The proliferation of SuperApps makes the issue of security even more important.
Cyber Risks of the Production Ecosystem
According to a World Economic Forum (WEF) report, the increase in connectivity and data transparency in the manufacturing ecosystem also increases risks. The manufacturing sector has been the target of cyberattacks for the last three years. At a global level 4 million cybersecurity experts Another striking point of the report is that there is a deficit.
Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Attacks
Koyun emphasizes the impact of technological developments on cybersecurity by saying, “In the past, cyber attacks were carried out by humans. Now, with artificial intelligence, this process can be carried out by millions of hackers.” In particular, 19 JulyHe states that 8,5 million devices were affected during the global crisis in .
Security Strategies and Precautions
He states that security requires attention not only against external attacks but also for the internal processes and employees of technology producers. Specializing in cybersecurity and increasing knowledge has become a necessity. Koyun emphasizes the importance of this issue by saying, “It is difficult to repair broken trust; precautions and measures are now a necessity.”
KOBIL's Cyber Security Vision
KOBIL has managed to establish a strong reputation in cybersecurity with the technology it has developed in the fields of identity verification and cryptography such as biometric verification, KYC, smart cards. It is observed that cybersecurity investments are increasing in the countries they serve. Cyber attacks, as the biggest risk factor of the future, have become one of the priority problems of all sectors.
Conclusion and Future Forecasts
Cyber attacks and security issues are of critical importance in every sector today. Institutions must take the necessary precautions on these issues and develop cybersecurity strategies. In the future, solutions supported by international collaborations and advanced technologies will be implemented to ensure cybersecurity.
