Step out of the Bull’s-Eye: Protect Your Organization against Advanced Threats and Targeted Cyberattacks
This white paper outlines the cybercrime landscape, advanced threats, targeted attack adversaries and their motives, the latest threats exposed, popular techniques, and strategies for preventing and mitigating attacks.
Cybersecurity is a major concern in both the private and public sectors. Targeted attacks aimed at commercial and government organizations are on the rise, in both frequency and severity. Computer networks and systems continue to be targets of intrusions, exploitation, and data theft by a variety of cybercriminals searching for sensitive financial information, personally identifiable information (PI) such as social security numbers, as well as geopolitical knowledge and corporate intelligence.
In recent years, threat actors have become increasingly focused on targeting corporations to obtain sensitive information for financial profit or economic espionage. Regardless of the adversaries’ motives, corporations understand the need to implement defensive measures to secure their infrastructure and sensitive data while mitigating the risk of future attacks.
