Smash Kaspersky threats with bold resilience

Kaspersky has peeled back the curtain on a chilling cyber truth.

Its 2024 Incident Response analyst report reveals that 35.2% of cyberattacks drag on beyond a month—some festering for a staggering 253 days.

This isn’t a fleeting scare; it’s a digital siege. Hackers aren’t just knocking—they’re camping out, and businesses need to wake up fast.

These marathon assaults don’t merely linger—they wreak havoc. Kaspersky, sifting through cries for help from stricken firms worldwide, flags data encryption and leaks as the top wounds.

Response teams slog for a median 50 hours—over two days—to stem the bleed. Entry points like public-facing apps, trusted partnerships, and legit accounts turn into trapdoors.

Why Kaspersky sees the long game

Cyberattacks aren’t smash-and-dash anymore—Kaspersky proves they’re marathons. The report pinpoints exploits in public apps as the prime breach spot—your website’s a sitting duck.

Next, hackers cosy up via trusted ties or swipe valid logins. These creeps hang around for 253 days on average, plotting chaos. When they strike, data’s locked or spilled before you blink.

Konstantin Sapronov, Kaspersky’s emergency response boss, cuts to the chase: “Tech’s rise fuels hacker stamina.”

He’s dead right. X chatter backs this—users hail the report for spotlighting sneaky trends.

Want to dodge the “long-lasting cyberattacks of 2024”? Patch apps, lock accounts with multi-factor, and scan for lurkers. Proactive trumps panic every time.

How Kaspersky arms you for battle

Kaspersky doesn’t just diagnose—it delivers armour. Their Managed Detection and Response (MDR) slashes the 50-hour response slog, sniffing out threats early.

Firms without cyber muscle can tap Kaspersky’s pros to block evasive cyberattacks. The fix is clear: deploy robust tools, drill staff, and ditch flimsy passwords.

Web forums buzz with MDR fans—businesses swear it’s a lifeline.

Also, prep beats repair. Regular cyber workouts and tight access controls stop hackers cold. The report’s data—35.2% of attacks over 30 days—demands action.

Encryption and leaks hit hardest, yet Kaspersky’s services flip the script. One X post sums it up: “Kaspersky’s MDR caught what we missed.” That’s your cue—gear up or get got.

Kaspersky’s 2024 report isn’t a yawn—it’s a battle cry. Over a third of cyberattacks stretch past a month, chewing through data and patience.

Response lags at 50 hours, but MDR and grit can cut that down. On 19 March 2025, the stakes shine: hackers linger, Kaspersky fights back.
