Emotet was the most common bot malware used, primarily because of its versatility in enabling malware and spam distribution services. The magnitude of Cloud attacks and breaches has continued to grow in 2019. Misconfiguration of cloud resources is still the number one cause for Cloud attacks, but now we also witness an increasing number of attacks aimed directly at Cloud service providers.
