Country by Country Analysis

Abstract

In this chapter, we present a detailed summary of the cyber-vulnerability of each of the 44 countries in our study. We start with a summary of the national cybersecurity strategy for that country. In some cases, the country has not published a national cybersecurity strategy, but most of the 44 countries in our study do have one. For each country, we show the average number of attacks per host, and the percentage of attacked hosts over our 2 year study window. We show the distribution of attack types (viruses, Trojans, worms, spyware, adware, misleading software) and how these attacks vary by month. For comparison, we compare attack types statistics for each country with the corresponding statistics for the entire set of OECD countries as well as the entire set of non-OECD countries.
