Despite the ever-growing threat of cyberattacks, many countries continue to rely on insecure internet services, a new study has revealed.
Security firm Rapid7 scanned the internet to determine the overall exposure of individual nations around the world, visualizing the findings in a ‘heat map.’
Belgium tops the list as the country with the highest exposure risk, followed by Tajikstan, Samoa, Australia, and China.

They plotted the data on a ‘heat map,’ with each colour-coded pixel representing 254 IP addresses. ‘The black areas mean we received no signal at all, the darker blue areas mean we picked up a few nodes and the yellow areas means we picked up many or most nodes,’ they wrote

The researchers used a tool called Project Sonar to conduct ‘full-sweeps of the internet,’ allowing them to scan every public-facing IP address in just hours, according to The Guardian.
Then, they plotted the data on a ‘heat map,’ with each colour-coded pixel representing 254 IP addresses.
‘We like to think of it as a proper map of the internet,’ the researchers note.
‘The black areas mean we received no signal at all, the darker blue areas mean we picked up a few nodes and the yellow areas means we picked up many or most nodes,’ they explained.

Gordon is now a person of interest to investigators attempting to piece together the events that led to Bobbi Kristina’s untimely death.

Christen's "a-ha" moment was an alarming one, but it's more common than you might think -- and it points toward a larger, and often undiscussed, byproduct of excessive screen time. The decline of eye contact is well-documented , and as we spend more and more of our time staring at screens, there's less time left over to look into people's eyes -- including the eyes of the people we care about most. Between staring at computers during the work day and regularly gazing down at our phones, Americans spending more time with their eyes glued to their screens than ever before.
