INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
The age of cyber warfare is upon us, and the threat of cybercrime to businesses continues to multiply by the day
Simply having cloud antivirus is no longer enough
The imperative to defend is stronger than ever
spray-and-pray approaches to attack enterprises, public bodies and governments
This has been an issue of high concern for institutions such as the FBI, who have issued warnings that ransomware presents an urgent and
ransomware remains alive and well
Hackers do not miss a trick; as our businesses, organizations and infrastructures continue to grow in scale and complexity, ransomware will
also continue to scale up and shape-shift.Implications of cyber-physicalAs ransomware takes on a new character, it is likely to threaten
industrial processes and business applications rather than data
Unfortunately, this makes data back-up irrelevant as safety net for what lies ahead.Complex cyber-physical systems will continue to present
tough security challenges that must be met in innovative ways
As smart buildings, smart cities, smart homes, and the internet of things become an exciting reality, vulnerabilities continue to grow,
be obsolete.Governments should expect an increased terrorist interest in taking advantage of cyber-physical vulnerabilities and
cyber-for-hire as an attack mechanism
Where terrorists might lack the technical skills to hack, cyber-physical systems and pay-for-play hackers could make it more appealing to
Ransomware attacks on state and local government IT service management systems have multiplied year-on-year, and 2020 will be no
Cyber warfare between nation-states is nothing new; we have seen cyber-attacks used throughout 2019 as an acceptable act short of war
This will continue, yet the line between what is an acceptable response and what is a direct act of war will become increasingly blurred,
nation-state cyber-attacks will continue to transcend traditional understandings of inter-state relations and the actors involved in proxy
This threatens representative democracy in more ways than one; we can expect that cyber-attacks are going to play a considerable role in

The building blocks are well in place
Advanced malware that adapts its behaviour to remain undetected has long been on the rise, and should it reach its full potential, 2020
they realize that anything is amiss on their smartphone.As ever, this presents new security challenges
If we fail to challenge traditional cybersecurity standards, the arrival of 5G will render supply chains exponentially riskier
With supply chain attacks already constituting one of the major risks confronting the modern enterprise, security considerations must not be

AI for cyber defence presents the most promising defence weaponry in the arms race, as it is the only force capable of combatting offensive
