On the contrary, Bolivia is ranked 1st among the Highest Risk Countries for Cyber Threats Worldwide, with a Cyber Safety Score of 38.39.

mixmode.ai evaluated cyber safety across 70 countries using data from the National Cyber Security Index (NCSI), the Global Cybersecurity Index (GCI), the Cybersecurity Exposure Index (CEI), and Comparitech.

Combining scores from these sources, they calculated a Cyber-Safety Score for each nation, adjusting for different scoring systems. Comparitech’s research, reflecting cyberattack rates, was inverted for the study.

Key Findings:

  • Finland, Norway, and Denmark lead with Cyber Safety Scores above 92, demonstrating robust cybersecurity infrastructure.
  • The United Kingdom, Sweden, Japan, and the United States maintain strong defenses against cyber threats, scoring above 88.
  • The USA scores highest on the Global Cybersecurity Index but only ranks ninth in overall safety.
  • Honduras, Bolivia, and Venezuela face significant cybersecurity challenges, scoring below 42.
  • Despite its wealth, the Middle East lags behind in overall cyber safety scores.
  • Algeria, Ecuador, and Kyrgyzstan confront growing cyber threats with scores below 52.
  • Sri Lanka, Panama, and Armenia exhibit vulnerabilities, with scores below 56.
