pstrongBrute force attacks involve systematically guessing passwords until the correct one is found./strong/p pSingapore registered a total of 6,059,867 brute force attacks on its remote desktop protocol (RDP) systems in 2023, according to Kaspersky's data.

Singapore registered a total of 6,059,867 brute force attacks on its remote desktop protocol systems in 2023, according to Kaspersky's data.

Bruteforce attacks involve systematically guessing passwords until the correct one is found, granting unauthorised access to sensitive systems and data. “Bruteforce attack is not a threat companies should ignore. The use of third-party services for data exchange, employees working on home computers, and potentially insecure Wi-Fi networks, and the use of remote-access tools like RDP remain to be a headache for corporate infosec teams,” said Adrian Hia, managing director for Asia Pacific at Kaspersky.

“Businesses here should beef up their endpoint and network security posture to defend themselves against smarter AI-based Bruteforce attacks,” Hia added.
