Over 35pc mobile phones, 19pc computers in BD malware infected: Study

35.91 per cent mobile phones and 19.07 per cent computers in the country are attacked by malware, said a UK-based study.

The study also stated that Bangladesh was the 6th most malware susceptible country in 2018.

Comparitecha, the UK-based firm, conducted the study by taking into account the existing legislation (and drafts) that covered seven categories (national strategy, military, content, privacy, critical infrastructure, commerce and crime).     

The study, which covered 60 countries, placed Algeria in number one, meaning it is the least cyber safe country whereas Japan has been placed in number 60, meaning it is the most cyber safe nation.

The best-prepared countries for cyber attacks were scored using the Global Cybersecurity Index (GCI) scores.
