Japan’s Cyber Crisis: What Global Enterprises Must Learn From These Targeted Attacks

🧠 Japan’s Cyber Attacks Are a Warning Shot

πŸ“Œ Over 80% of attacks on Japanese firms in 2024 were targeted – not random.

🎯 Cybercriminals are studying org charts, mimicking voices, cloning emails – and going after the humans in your company, not just the tech.

πŸ” One firm was infiltrated through deepfaked Zoom calls + spoofed executive emails. Result? Millions lost in just days.
