Most of us use the Internet every day yet we often lose sight of what others are doing on the Net. Here are some stats which you might find surprising:

• Chinese tech giant Huawei says it’s the target of about a million cyber-attacks a day.
• As of January 2019, there are almost 4.4 billion active internet users, equivalent to 57% of the global population.
• About 14.5 billion spam emails are sent every single day.
• Worldwide, there are 1.495 billion daily active users (DAUs) on Facebook as of Q3 2018.
• 60 Million Sites Use WordPress – the platform our blog uses.
• When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, there were approximately 50 servers on the Internet; today, it is estimated that there are over 75,000 servers.
