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.
