Emerging threats
Are you adapting your cyber defence strategy?
As corporate cyber defences have improved over recent years, organised criminal groups and malicious state actors have discovered new ways of penetrating company systems, based around the exploitation of their digital vulnerabilities, rather than just cyber security or technical weaknesses.
Publicly available digital material related to companies and their employees has ballooned in the last ten years, providing hackers with multiple new opportunities to hold companies to ransom, disrupt their operations, and steal confidential information. This shift in attacker techniques has resulted in enhanced cyber security risks, such as social engineering, either to aid in penetrating IT infrastructure, or to trick a targeted individual for some personal gain.
As these threat tactics continue to evolve, we must respond with heightened vigilance and a more proactive, layered approach to cybersecurity to safeguard our data, operations, and people.
To discuss these emerging threats and how to defend against them, PGI will be holding a free webinar, hosted by Senior Digital Investigations Analyst, Shawn Gillooly, on 14 May at 3:30pm GMT+1.
This session will equip attendees with the knowledge to start proactively managing and mitigating complex digital risks, safeguard reputation and sensitive data, and maintain operational integrity in the face of evolving digital threats.
