During 2017 we will suffer ‘old’ threats like ransomware, cyber espionage and ‘hacktivist’ exposing privacy issues but in addition to known them, our threats list will upgrade so much adding new concepts like machine learning accelerates social engineering attacks or cloud computing providers infection. The list is a very long, so a big effort (time, money, people) is needed to mitigate all these risks. After reading more than 10 different reports about Cyber Security Threats 2017 published in Internet I did my own version. I hope you like it.

It is clear that we are “opening” many doors (too many?) to give opportunities to hackers to attack our Critical Infrastructures, environments and assets, steal or destroy our data (think about Big Data also) and maybe we can also think all it is not logical because it is an attitude with too muchRead More →
