At ACS, we are committed to keeping you informed about the latest developments in cybersecurity to ensure your digital assets remain secure. As part of this commitment, we are proud to present insights from our esteemed partner, Trend Micro, in their 2023 Annual Cybersecurity Report.
The report provides an in-depth analysis of the evolving threat landscape, shedding light on how cybercriminals are adapting their tactics to exploit the expanding attack surface. Trend Micro’s continuous surveillance and research highlight a shift in cybercriminal behaviour, with threat actors prioritizing substance oversize.
Key findings from the report include:
Calibrating Operations: Cybercriminals are deviating from big-batch attacks and instead focusing on a narrower range of high-value targets. By doubling down on tried and tested techniques and abusing legitimate processes for stealth, threat actors are creating constant, bolder, and more operative schemes.
Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs): APT groups such as APT34, Pawn Storm, and Void Rabisu are demonstrating adaptability and sophistication in their operations. They are rapidly creating new malware and exploring novel tactics to evade detection and maintain persistence.
Ransomware: Ransomware gangs are enhancing their operations with efficient tactics and launching bolder attacks. Prolific groups like Clop and BlackCat are exploiting major vulnerabilities and making quick pivots to evade detection.
Industry Evolution: The efficiency with which cybercriminal groups are evolving suggests they are building an industry comparable to traditional organizations in size, revenue, and operations.
