Both across the Middle East and around the globe, nationwide lockdowns led to a surge in remote working which triggered security concerns. Mimecast's Threat Centre witnessed a historic uptick in cyber-attacks. The centre saw increases in malware by 22% and spam by 36% in the Middle East during February and March, when the Coronavirus started spreading in the region.
