  • Did you know that a single virus can infect upwards of 10 million users around the world! 
  • According to the latest FBI statistics on cybercrime, 52% of computer users (mostly from the business community) experienced some sort of unathorized use or intrusion of their computer systems.  Of those unauthorized uses, 65% were virus attacks.  
  • In other words, out of 1,000 computers, about 520 were subject to some sort of unauthorized use or attack.
  • Out of those 520 computers, 65% of them were infected by viruses.
  • This amounts to 338 computers out of every 1,000. 
  • Put another way, about 33.8%, or roughly a third, of all computers are victims of virus attacks each year.
