Cybersecurity threats are expected to increase substantially in 2021. Key threats include a spike in ransomware attacks, which some estimates say will cost businesses over $20 billion globally. There is also expected to be a rise in supply chain attacks like the SolarWinds hack, as organizations increase their reliance on third-party vendors. Phishing, smishing, and vishing attacks are also forecast to grow, especially those related to COVID-19 themes around vaccines and financial relief. The shift to remote work during the pandemic has introduced new vulnerabilities around unmanaged home networks and devices.

Cybercrime poses a significant threat to businesses, estimated to cost over $6 trillion globally by 2021. Malware attacks nearly doubled in 2016, especially targeting Android devices. Over 50% of small-to-medium businesses reported being breached in the last 12 months, with the average data breach costing $3.62 million but $7.35 million in the US. As cyber threats rise, cybersecurity spending is projected to exceed $1 trillion from 2017 to 2021 to help businesses protect against growing cyber attacks.
The document discusses the growing security challenges faced by organizations and the need to close the gap between security (SecOps) and IT operations teams. It notes that the volume and complexity of cyberattacks have increased significantly. However, current security tools, processes, and teams are often unable to keep up due to a lack of integration and coordination between security and operations groups. This results in security vulnerabilities not being addressed quickly enough, leading to potential data breaches and other security incidents. The document argues that automating security and operations workflows can help eliminate inefficiencies and prioritize the remediation of the most critical issues.

The 10 Fastest Growing Cyber Security Companies of 2017
- Cybersecurity spending has grown significantly over the past decade, from $3.5 billion in 2004 to an estimated $120 billion in 2017, driven largely by increasing cybercrime.
- Many large companies have significantly increased their cybersecurity budgets in response, including Bank of America which has an unlimited budget for cybersecurity, JPMorgan Chase which doubled its budget to $500 million, and Microsoft which invests over $1 billion annually.
- However, small and medium businesses are particularly vulnerable as they bear 72% of cyber attacks but often lack the resources of larger companies to implement robust cybersecurity programs. Highground Cyber aims to help small and mid-market CEOs protect their companies through comprehensive cybersecurity solutions.
The document discusses trends in cyberattacks in 2021, with a focus on the explosive growth of ransomware attacks. Ransomware increased 105% in 2021 as attacks grew more sophisticated employing double and triple extortion techniques. In response to the increasing threats, governments and international organizations around the world have ramped up efforts to counter ransomware and cybercrime, recognizing it as a serious national security threat. This includes the formation of task forces, new policies and regulations, and indications that the U.S. military may now take a more direct, offensive approach against ransomware groups and their infrastructure.
What Are Cyber Attacks All About? | Cyberroot Risk AdvisoryCR Group
Cyber attacks involve compromising computer systems and networks to cause harm. The rise in cyber attacks has been driven by more people working remotely during the pandemic using unsecured networks, making systems easier to hack. Research shows that businesses are becoming more aware of cyber risks and are purchasing more cyber insurance as a result. Statistics show that cybercrime costs over $1 trillion globally each year and the average cost of a data breach for a business is over $3 million. Certain industries like healthcare, energy, and finance are particularly at risk of costly cyber attacks.
Cybersecurity experts predict that cyber attacks will be twice as what happened in 2019. In 2021 it is predicted that a cyber attack will be reported every 11 seconds which is twice what it was in 2019 (every 19 seconds).
Everyone wants to know what the future holds. Those who are one step ahead of the rest can sense challenges ahead of time and avoid pitfalls or recognize opportunities and move towards success.

Cyberattacks are becoming more frequent and sophisticated, making a recovery from them increasingly difficult. Without preparation, a cyberattack can be devastating to your business, having severe operational, financial, legal and reputational implications.
The prevalence of cyber breaches also means cybersecurity is no longer solely an IT concern. Elevating your information security from functional to effective takes a robust set of elements, processes and people working together toward a common goal.
Our professionals have developed these articles and resources to help you protect your organization from these attacks.
The document provides an overview of cybersecurity trends predictions for 2023 based on a report by Quick Heal Security Researchers. It summarizes trends that played out in 2022 accurately, including the increased sophistication of Cobalt Strike, rise in supply chain attacks, exploitation of old vulnerabilities, and growth of ransomware-as-a-service. The document then predicts that in 2023, vishing attacks, spyloan apps, banking trojans using on-device fraud, RDP brute force attacks, Rust-based malware, and man-on-the-side attacks will continue to be prominent cybersecurity threats.
The document provides an overview of cybersecurity issues related to aerospace. It discusses the growing cyber threat landscape, with ransomware groups increasingly targeting and leaking data from aerospace companies. Examples are given of unprotected aerospace databases being found online. Trends from past cyberattacks show higher impacts resulting from lower preparedness. The document also profiles several state-sponsored advanced persistent threat groups interested in aviation data. It examines approaches to budgeting for cybersecurity and trends over time. Finally, it provides an overview of the Aeronautical Information Data Communication protocol and need for securing the data it transmits.
Most respondents to the survey say they plan to increase their security spending in 2016, with the majority planning to spend between $50,000-$100,000, compared to 2015 where most spent $0-10,000. Experts predict the global cybersecurity market will increase nearly 8% in 2016 to $81 billion total. The statistics are seen as conservative, with one expert believing over 80% of organizations will spend over $100,000 due to increased geo-political conflicts playing out through hacktivism and cybercriminals transitioning to data exfiltration for profit, often exploiting DNS vulnerabilities. There was also a sharp rise in awareness of ransomware among respondents.
As a result of the pandemic's transition to remote work, companies have become more exposed to malicious assaults. To combat such attacks, you must keep a close eye on developing cybersecurity trends. The main cybersecurity trends for 2022 will be discussed in this article.

Artificial intelligence and quantum computing developments will further escalate the arms race between attackers and defenders. Overall, 2022 will be a very challenging year for cybersecurity as threats become more powerful and widespread.
Cyberspace is rapidly transforming our lives – how we live, interact, govern and create value. With the JAM (Jan Dhan, Aadhaar and Mobile) trinity, India is at the forefront of global digital transformation. “Digital India” is being hailed as the world's largest technology led programme of its kind.
While internet, smartphones and modern information and
communication devices have been great force multipliers, endless connectivity and proliferation of IoT devices is giving rise to vulnerabilities, risks and concerns. Cyber security is today ranked among top threats by governments and corporates. Heightened concerns about data security and privacy have resulted in a spate of regulations in India and across the world. India is in the process of discussing and enacting its own comprehensive data security and privacy regulation, as well as vertical specific ones. Cyber security is an ecosystem where laws, organisations, skills, cooperation and
technical implementation would need to be in harmony to be
effective.
Overall, a robust regulatory framework based on global and
country-specific regulations, development of a holistic cyber
security eco-system (academia and industry as well as
entrepreneurial) and a coordinated global approach through
proactive cyber diplomacy would help to secure cyber space and promote confidence and trust of key stakeholders including
citizens, businesses, political and security leaders.
CII has been actively working in the cyber security space. The CII Task Force on Public Private Partnership for Security of the Cyber Space has been set up to bring about improvements in the legal framework to strengthen and maintain a safe cyberspace ecosystem by capacity building through education and training programmes. We would facilitate collaboration and cooperation between Government and Industry in the area of cyber security in general and protection of critical information infrastructure in particular, covering cyber threats, vulnerabilities, breaches, potential protective measures, and adoption of best practices.

Quality Patents: Patents That Stand the Test of TimeAurora Consulting
Is your patent a vanity piece of paper for your office wall? Or is it a reliable, defendable, assertable, property right? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent simply a transactional cost and a large pile of legal bills for your startup? Or is it a leverageable asset worthy of attracting precious investment dollars, worth its cost in multiples of valuation? The difference is often quality.
Is your patent application only good enough to get through the examination process? Or has it been crafted to stand the tests of time and varied audiences if you later need to assert that document against an infringer, find yourself litigating with it in an Article 3 Court at the hands of a judge and jury, God forbid, end up having to defend its validity at the PTAB, or even needing to use it to block pirated imports at the International Trade Commission? The difference is often quality.
Quality will be our focus for a good chunk of the remainder of this season. What goes into a quality patent, and where possible, how do you get it without breaking the bank?
** Episode Overview **

Mitigating the Impact of State Management in Cloud Stream Processing SystemsScyllaDB
Stream processing is a crucial component of modern data infrastructure, but constructing an efficient and scalable stream processing system can be challenging. Decoupling compute and storage architecture has emerged as an effective solution to these challenges, but it can introduce high latency issues, especially when dealing with complex continuous queries that necessitate managing extra-large internal states.
In this talk, we focus on addressing the high latency issues associated with S3 storage in stream processing systems that employ a decoupled compute and storage architecture. We delve into the root causes of latency in this context and explore various techniques to minimize the impact of S3 latency on stream processing performance. Our proposed approach is to implement a tiered storage mechanism that leverages a blend of high-performance and low-cost storage tiers to reduce data movement between the compute and storage layers while maintaining efficient processing.
Throughout the talk, we will present experimental results that demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in mitigating the impact of S3 latency on stream processing. By the end of the talk, attendees will have gained insights into how to optimize their stream processing systems for reduced latency and improved cost-efficiency.
