Most Worrisome Threats

  • Written by Edward Gately
  • April 15, 2022

CF: What do you find most worrisome about the current threat landscape?

KH: Ransomware is quite worrisome. But we just came out with a new research report, and what we highlighted in there is about nation-state threats. And I would say that is particularly worrisome, especially on critical infrastructure … and the line is sort of blurring between nation-state actors and cybercriminals. There are often a lot of times where nation-state actors or the employees are working off hours as cybercrime groups. So that line is sort of blurring. And [the attacks] are definitely more and more sophisticated.

The report highlights some of the stats that we found after interviewing and surveying over 800 security professionals around the world. And it highlights the need for more government help. It highlights … companies feeling maybe a little bit more capable and competent than they actually are in mitigating the risks and threats around nation-state actors.
