For more insights and key statistics on the biggest trends in today’s most disruptive industries, subscribe to our Chart of the Day newsletter.

Among US teens and adults, 15% had a social media account hacked in the past year as of Q1 2022. In the same time frame, 13% had a credit card hacked and 10% fell for an online scam.

Beyond the chart: Younger consumers are more vulnerable to some of these attacks. For example, 16% of Gen Zers reported being scammed online, versus just 4% of baby boomers.

One-third of US teens and adults experienced some sort of security breach in the past year. Still, only 34% implemented two-factor authentication for apps and services during that period.
