TOKYO -- About half of Japanese financial institutions have been on the receiving end of a cyberattack since 2015, with a little more than 10% falling prey to varying degrees, a Bank of Japan survey released Monday shows.
Of the 411 banks, credit associations and other financial institutions surveyed, 1.2% said they suffered significant fallout from a cyberattack while 9.7% noted a minor impact. The issues included viruses sent through email and difficulty viewing home pages.
