2019 was quite a year in cyberspace. As highlighted last month in my year-end top story blog, the top cybersecurity theme was all about the ways that ransomware targeted state and local governments and hospitals. In fact, we are still learning about some 2019 government ransomware impacts, like this story from Albany County, NY, over Christmas break.
Also, data breaches were up more than 33% in 2019, when compared with 2018, according to Risk Based Security.
So readers always ask: What were the most popular Lohrmann on Cybersecurity & Infrastructure blogs in the past year?
We crunch the numbers every January, and offer you the opportunity to go back and focus in on the topics that others are reading and spending their time on or have special significance.
Overall, blog page views are up 25% over 2018, which is no surprise.

Some Overall Blog Metric Takeaways
I was really surprised by the attention that the chip implant topic has received. In fact, several journalists have asked for interviews to cover these issues in more detail.
I was not surprised by the attention given to the annual security predictions blogs, as these always receive plenty of attention and more and more global coverage. These summaries provide references to the top industry reports, and many industry colleagues express their gratitude for this post every year.
As we head into the 2020s will the palm print or other biometrics replace credit cards? Or, will implanted chips be more widely adopted. Either way, the privacy and security debates have just begun – so expect much more coverage of this topic this year.
Another hot topic will be privacy regulations and plans to roll out penalties and/or other actions to ensure enforcement of new laws like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
