Dark Reading: Nearly 85 percent of enterprises are harboring malware, and a new bot emerges each day, new Check Point report says.
Nearly three-fourths of enterprises have at least one bot-infected endpoint living in their corporate networks, and every three minutes a bot communicates with its command and control server.
New data from Check Point Software Technologies highlights the botnet and malware infestation within the enterprise, with 84 percent of organizations found infected with malware, and 2.2 pieces of unknown malware hitting them once every hour. Less than 10 percent of antivirus products had detected unknown malware, and the number of organizations found with bots jumped from 63 percent in 2012 to 73 percent in 2013.
