The cyber battlefield
The cyber battlefield
Cyberattackers are increasingly dominating the cyber battlefield against cyber defenders. Novel multi-extortion techniques, ransomware as a service (RaaS), and unprecedented supply chain attacks have almost erased barriers to entry for hackers and expanded the cyber spoils “pie.” Cyber defenders struggle to keep up with their opponents’ advances. Cybersecurity is on board agendas but is often seen as a “hygiene” measure that is part of the IT budget.
