Total Population of the World: 8Bn

People having access to any kind of device (Mobile, Laptop, etc) = 60% = 4.8Bn

People having access to internet = 60% = 2.88 Bn

There are 2.88Bn who are prone to get hacked

Reasons why they can get hacked:

1. Individuals with high net income
2. Individuals who are famous
3. Individuals who have high authority/power

Lets consider from 2.88Bn, 30% of people fall in this category i.e. 864Mn

Now these categories can be overlapping (%- population (864Mn))

Let’s consider a Venn diagram

Only High income = 15%

Only Famous = 15%

Only High Power = 15%

High income & Famous = 10%

Famous & High Power = 10%

High Power & High Income = 10%

High income & Famous & High Power = 5%

Each category will not have an equal possibility of getting hacked (% – getting hacked/year)

Only High income = 20%=~26Mn

Only Famous = 20%=~26Mn

Only High Power = 20%=~26Mn

High income & Famous = 50%=~43Mn

Famous & High Power = 50%=~43Mn

High Power & High Income = 50%=~43Mn

High income & Famous & High Power = 80%=~35Mn

Total= ~242Mn/year

Also, as hacking has been fairly easy to learn thus there would be instances where teenagers try to hack someone considering a 20% increase on 242Mn i.e. ~290Mn/Year
