2022 is coming to an end, so we wanted to use today's โ๏ธ ๐ ๐งต to prepare you all for #cloudsecurity attacks that are likely to increase in 2023. Let's look at some of the common attack types that we expect to remain relevant in 2023 to enterprise & SMB organizations. More๐
Cryptojacking:
This is the unauthorized use of someone's computing resources to mine cryptocurrency. This type of attack may increase in the future due to the increasing value of cryptocurrency & the availability of cloud computing resources. 25% or more orgs will see this.
Ransomware:
This is a type of malicious software that encrypts a victim's files & demands a ransom from the victim to restore access. Ransomware attacks have increased to hundreds of million a yr & are likely to continue to be a threat in the future as ransomware-aaS grows.
Insider threats:
These attacks are carried out by individuals who have legit access to a company's systems. Insider threats may increase in the future due to the # of people working remotely. These attacks have grown by 44% & cost more than a 3rd more than a trad attack.
Denial of Service (DoS):
These attacks involve overwhelming a website or server with traffic in an attempt to make it unavailable. DoS attacks are likely to increase in the future due to the ease with which they can be launched and the potential for significant disruption.
Account takeover:
This is when an attacker gains access to a user's cloud account and uses it to access sensitive data or disrupt services. Account takeover attacks may increase in the future due to the # of people using cloud services & the use of weak passwords.
