Executive Summary
Yesterday’s leading-edge security innovations are today’s table stakes. As many organizations have ramped up multi-faceted security defenses, threat actors have pivoted to embrace new exploits, new avenues of compromise, and new ways of ensuring a financial payoff from their misdeeds. Criminal or not, adversaries with just as much commitment to wreaking havoc as organizations have to prevent are actively pursuing the next loophole, the next security vulnerability, and the next victim to hold ransom. As security threats change, security defenses need to as well, both reactively to stop current threats, and, more importantly, proactively to get ahead of future security threats.
In this report, we look at the dynamics of the new threat landscape and highlight new security solutions and practices that go beyond the capabilities of conventional solutions.
