6 Cybersecurity Trends To Keep An Eye On In The New Year
Apptega, January 2nd, 2023
As 2022 comes to a close and we look forward to starting 2023 off on the right foot, here are 6 cybersecurity trends every organization should keep an eye on in 2023.
1. Ransomware is not going away. During the pandemic, we saw an increase in ransomware attacks, driven partly by newly remote teams and rapidly adopting new technologies. While that may have slowed a bit as nation-state actors shifted focus during the outbreak of conflict in Ukraine, it's likely ransomware attacks won't go away in 2023. A report from Trend Micro anticipates that attackers are likely to keep the same kill chain, but are likely to change the ransomware payload to seek out ways for additional data extortion.
Tip: Install anti-malware and antivirus software and employ continuous risk assessment, risk management, and vulnerability management best practices.
