Cyber attacks are on the rise, and they show no signs of slowing down. In fact, many experts believe that we are only seeing the tip of the iceberg when it comes to cybercrime. As businesses continue to move their operations online, they become increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. In this blog post, we will take a look at the five most dangerous cyberattacks in history. These attacks have caused billions of dollars in damage and affected millions.

Cyber threat hunting is the process of actively seeking out potential threats in your network and eliminating them before they can cause harm. But, is this a service your organization needs? Hackers are always looking for new vulnerabilities to exploit, and they're becoming increasingly sophisticated in their methods. To protect your business, it's essential to have a comprehensive security strategy in place.

Automation is a powerful tool. With some foresight and a little elbow grease, you can save hours, days, or even months of work by strategically automating repetitive tasks. What makes automation particularly beneficial is that it eliminates manual interaction with multiple systems. Rather than manually uploading data to an event response system or notifying key support personnel of an incident, tying these tasks together through automation can reduce critical time and help resolve problems faster and more efficiently. But, before we can fill in the gaps between all of the platforms we are responsible for, we first need to understand how data moves around on the web and how we can use that process to our advantage.

In recent years, many business and IT decision-makers have missed key opportunities when it comes to essential organizational cybersecurity practices - from not properly segmenting networks and not deactivating unused accounts (or protecting them with multi-factor authentication), to not implementing proper password security controls. As a result, organizations are increasingly falling victim to costly and damaging data breaches, replete with the associated disruption to operations and issues with both legal and public relations departments.

Ransomware's ascent from a minor crime to a multi-billion-dollar industry shows the seriousness of the danger to corporations. But even though Ransomware has been making the news regularly for the past five years, it is not new to hold user data or systems hostage and then demand a payment to get them back. This article will look at the evolution of ransomware, from its first known attack in 1989 to the vicious threat it has become in the present.

As a CIO, you know that your business faces cyber threats daily. While you may have robust security measures in place, it's impossible to protect your organization from every possible attack. That's where cyber threat intelligence comes in. By incorporating this valuable resource into your security strategy, you can dramatically reduce your risk of a breach.
