Everything Everywhere All at Once
CF: What’s your take on the current threat landscape? What do you find most dangerous?
GA: Everything. Unfortunately for us, almost anyone can be a cybercriminal. With the dark web, and people commercializing things like ransomware and getting subscriptions, the threats really are from everywhere. Nation-state terrorism is a very big threat, not just to other nations, but to our utilities, our financial organizations, etc. So the threats really seriously are coming from everywhere. Like most people know, the endpoint is easy for them to attack and go after, but it’s also the network as well, coming in and bombarding, and taking over somebody’s networking and locking it down. Those are real threats that are happening. And unfortunately, there’s no end in sight. We’ve got to do everything we can to be not one step in front of the cybercriminals, but literally five steps ahead, because as soon as they can get around something, they will. So the premise that we have is that they’re in, they’ve already breached you. What you have to do is you’ve got to find them. And that’s what we do.
