More Linux Malware Means More Linux Monitoring

Reports suggest an increase in malware attacks on Linux systems, due to the potentially high return for cybercriminals. Linux’s prevalence on servers and devices makes it an attractive target, since security measures often prioritise Windows-based threats, leaving Linux vulnerable. Linux malware increased by 50% in 2022, according to an Atlas VPN report, and this trend of increasing Linux malware attacks seems to be focused on Linux systems in business and industry.
