Cybercriminals and threat actors use multiple vectors to infiltrate your IT network. They employ a series of coordinated steps as they… Impactful cyberattacks today are no longer executed as a simple virus with self-mutation capabilities, especially when many organizations rely on AI-enabled threat detection capabilities. They’re a lot more sophisticated.

If the holiday classic “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” was remade in 2023, the mean green guy might be played by an Internet bot. Sure, these bots may not come down your chimney and steal a tree or holiday dinner, but threat actors have designed them to help ruin retailer and consumer holiday shopping experiences.

Most of those attacks were thwarted using a combination of machine learning on user behaviour and granular rate limits at URI, IP, and Geo levels. For SOC teams who don’t have an advanced behavioural DDoS mitigation tool like AppTrana at their disposal, this blog covers basic mitigation measures that can thwart the most simple and medium-severity DDoS attacks.

As a continuation of our ongoing series collecting predictions from our many subject-matter experts here at Netskope, we headed down the (metaphorical) corridor to the Threat Labs. We wanted to extract from them some threats and cyberattack-related predictions, based on what they are starting to see evolving in the landscape. We’ve got a great selection, covering generative AI, software supply chain, and social engineering. Strap in!
