Sophisticated cyber attacks are on the rise globally. Okta analysed anonymised Okta ThreatInsight data this year to understand which industries are being attacked the most and discovered that energy, mining, oil and gas are the top industry targets. Okta's most recent data shows that nearly one in three authentication attempts in this industry are threats – an incredible tenfold increase over the previous year. Non-profits come in second place with a still sobering 18% attack rate.
