Nowadays, it is hard to see an organization without a digital presence, while our modern society relies on a wide range of activities like banking, government services, commerce, or education that are offered online. Even more, the recent years have pushed the limits of digital transformation for multiple organizations, companies, and educational institutions. This transition occurred without any prior planning or preparation and at an unprecedented scale [1]. As the globe is converging towards a technology-driven society, cyber attacks and cyber crime campaigns are blooming. Recent reports show that cyber crime is growing in severity and frequency, competing with the traditional crime in both the number of incidents and revenue [2].
