Theft, espionage and sabotage cause total damage of 223 billion euros to the German economy every year. This means that criminal attacks have once again caused record damage: The amount of damage is more than twice as high as in 2018/2019, when it was 103 billion euros p.a.. Nine out of ten companies (88 percent) were affected by attacks in 2020/2021. In 2018/2019, three quarters (75 percent) were victims. These are the results of a representative study by the digital association Bitkom, for which more than 1,000 companies across all industries were surveyed.
