Around 59 percent of Indian adults have been a victim of cybercrime in the past 12 months, according to the sixth annual Norton Cyber Safety Insights report released by online security company Norton. 

The report has highlighted that victims of cybercrime in India have spent over 1.3 billion hours trying to resolve their problems

The study was conducted online in collaboration with the Harris Poll that surveyed 10,000 adults in ten nations around the world, with 1,000 adults from India. 

According to the study, seven out of ten adults -- roughly 70 percent believe that work from home has made people more susceptible to cyber attacks from hackers and cybercriminals. Two-thirds of individuals -- around 66 percent are more scared to be a victim of a cybercrime. 

Despite the lingering fears around 52 percent of individuals are unaware of how they can protect themselves from cybercrime. 68 percent say that they find it difficult to determine the credibility of the information they see on their screens at times.
