Today, the human factor still plays a role in most cybersecurity incidents. Human error is involved in 74% of data breaches. It’s essential to shift towards designing human-centric controls that promote and facilitate the use of responsible cybersecurity practices among employees.

Not only is ransomware on the rise, but this type of malware is also growing more sophisticated and professionalized, which is a cause for concern for both organizations and users.

What cybersecurity threats will emerge from the depths of the dark web and from the minds of threat actors in 2024?

Join our webinar, where Corey Nachreiner, CSO, and Marc Laliberte, director of security operations, will discuss.

More and more companies are realizing the importance of a unified cybersecurity system to shield against threats. Perhaps that's why cyberattacks on the network are becoming less common, dropping by almost 80% this quarter, according to our latest Internet Security Report (ISR). Even so, for SMBs, despite progress shown in adopting cybersecurity systems, the sheer volume of malware, as well as its rapid ability to change and evolve, poses a danger to company network systems.

The demand for logistics services has risen sharply in recent years, especially in the wake of the e-commerce boom. Digitization of the sector has been a driving factor behind the development of the supply chain as it makes data processing more efficient and shipments faster. Sector growth, the mass of company and consumer data handled, and the decentralization inherent to the chain, means these services have become a target of interest for cybercriminals.

eXtended Detection and Response (XDR) technology has transformed the cybersecurity paradigm by enhancing visibility and threat detection, providing unprecedented response capabilities. It is a tool capable of monitoring the different security layers of a company, generating a single pane that unifies the detections produced in these layers.
