What are the emerging threats that keep you up at night as a CISO?
As we get more skilled at rooting out malicious behavior and stopping it, threat actors are finding new, more effective ways of hiding or persisting their capabilities. At the same time, the systems we use are increasingly more complex and integrated making attack surfaces larger and configurations harder to lock down. This has led to a booming criminal underground and in-turn needs for individuals and organizations to protect themselves.
