What are the main initial access vectors for cyberattacks?
The primary initial access vectors identified include valid credentials, browser-based threats, and email. In 2024, valid credentials were the most frequently exploited method, while browser-sourced malware accounted for 70% of malware cases analyzed. Email, although still a significant vector, has seen a decline in effectiveness.
How are ransomware attacks evolving?
Ransomware attacks are increasingly originating from out-of-scope endpoints, with a notable rise in browser-based threats. Additionally, there is a projected increase in politically motivated cyberattacks targeting the physical infrastructure of the Internet, which could disrupt internet access across various sectors.
What strategies can organizations implement to mitigate cyber risks?
Organizations should focus on comprehensive endpoint protection, implement phish-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA), conduct regular phishing awareness training, and utilize Dark Web Monitoring services. These strategies can help identify compromised credentials early and minimize unauthorized access, ultimately reducing the risk of successful cyberattacks.
