The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), has revealed that South Africa is one of the countries that has witnessed an increase in cyber-related incidents due to COVID-19. According to the council, one of the reasons for the increase in cyberattacks since the pandemic is that many people moved away from more secure offices and networks to working from home where there was less security.
