Over the years, cybercrime has changed and morphed alongside technology and cybersecurity products. Ransomware has moved from targeting individuals and favoring corporations to new tactics for gathering information when infiltrating networks and even new forms of cybercrime. Tech experts at Abaram Network Solutions note that this is how the cybersecurity industry works. It’s a cycle of new products, followed by cybercriminals who exploit vulnerabilities, followed by new products, and so on. But what can be expected in the world of cybercrime in 2020?
Experts suggest that 2020 will mark a wave of cybercrimes with effects crossing over to the real world at a grander scale than before. Today, there’s the integration between electronic devices and the internet. And not all of these new products will be as secure as those produced by companies with security in mind.
There is also that lingering idea that AI will be used against the cybersecurity industry. Currently, several cybersecurity companies employ machine learning in terms of coming up with solutions. But what happens when cybercriminals get a hold of something similar to coming up with exploits, techniques, and ways of penetrating secure networks?
Lastly, ransomware has begun shifting once more. Before, it targeted mainly individuals. Then it moved on to target corporations and businesses for a bigger payoff. This year, ransomware could be capitalizing on the extent of a vulnerability given that cybercriminals are getting faster at exploiting vulnerabilities.
Abaram Network Solutions believes that companies must hold regular sessions to keep their employees informed with the latest cybersecurity threats, how they are performed, and the damages it can cost the company. While cybercriminals may have the latest tools, they often rely on human errors to make their work easier.
