This was said by the Deputy Minister of Transport, Information Technology and Communications Georgi Todorov at the 12th International Conference on Information Security and Data Storage. He cited data from the European Commission, which say that, at any time, there are about 150,000 viruses or malicious codes on the Internet that infect the devices of 1 million users daily.
