The Paris 2024 Olympics games are here, and for the first time since 2020, spectators are welcome to attend, with an influx of 15-million people expected to attend the events.
During the last Olympic Games in 2021, Japan suffered almost 450-million attempted cyberattacks in just two weeks. What’s more, the Olympics represent a golden opportunity for cybercriminals to cause major damage by exploiting the high media profile of the event due to the concentration of sensitive data and technological infrastructures.
The issue of e-mail security is a crucial one. With most communications and information passing through this channel, it is imperative to reinforce defences at the individual level. During the 2018 Olympic Games in South Korea, several cyberattacks were recorded, the most notable of which was the “Olympic Destroyer” attack, which disrupted the Olympic launch ceremony and targeted IT systems, resulting in large-scale disruptions such as the shutdown of the internet network, television broadcasting, and ticket management.
