New analysis of cyber attacks shows ransomware attacks are running far more rampant than previously thought, with half of organizations blaming poor cyber hygiene. After last year’s shocking stat that 70% of organizations pay the ransom, it’s really surprising to see that an even greater percentage (91%) have paid a ransom at least once in the last 12 months – this according to Extrahop’s 2024 Global Cyber Confidence Index.

Behavioral threats and social engineering attacks target the human psyche rather than exploiting technical vulnerabilities. They rely on psychological manipulation, deception, and exploiting human trust to trick individuals into divulging sensitive information, clicking on malicious links, or taking actions that compromise security. Understanding these tactics and the human behaviors they exploit is key to effectively mitigating email security risks.

For security analysts navigating an increasingly complex threat landscape, the ability to quickly identify and respond to attacks is critical. Security information and event management (SIEM) tools have been integral to helping security teams quickly respond to attacks. Now, in the era of generative AI, Elastic is changing the game by delivering AI-driven security analytics to replace SIEM and modernize the SOC.
