Survey: what black hat hackers say

2017 Black Hat Hacker Survey Report
Thycotic’s survey of attendees at the 2017 Black Hat Conference, July 25-27 in Las Vegas, reveals what cybersecurity technologies hackers think are obsolete; plus, the easiest and fastest ways they use to get at your sensitive data.

2016 Black Hat Hacker Survey Report
Thycotic’s latest survey of hacker attendees at the Black Hat Conference in Las Vegas, shows overwhelming support for data privacy among respondents. Yet, in a seeming contradiction of their own beliefs, nearly half said they would be willing to hack your password for a fee if asked by the FBI. Bottom line: more than 77% of Black Hat survey hackers believe no password is safe from hackers or the government for that matter.
