6. ISE Cyber Security ETF (HACK)

In November, PureFunds launched its ISE Cyber Security ETF, the first fund ever to offer targeted exposure to companies in the cyber security industry. In recent years, cyber attacks have increased significantly on both an individual and company level basis, as well as on a government level. Given the need for cyber security, this ETF may be a compelling option for those looking to tap into a rapidly growing industry.

The fund holds approximately 30 individual securities, which include companies either classified as cyber security infrastructure providers or cyber security service providers.
