Identity-based attacks continue to take centre stage, as adversaries focus on social engineering attacks that bypass multi-factor authentication.
The 2024 edition of the CrowdStrike Global Threat Report arrives at a pivotal moment for our global community of protectors. The speed and ferocity of cyber attacks continue to accelerate as adversaries compress the time between initial entry, lateral movement and breach. At the same time, the rise of generative AI has the potential to lower the barrier of entry for low-skilled adversaries, making it easier to launch attacks that are more sophisticated and state of the art.
We are entering an era of a cyber arms race where AI will amplify the impact for both the security professional and the adversary. Organisations cannot afford to fall behind and the legacy technology of yesterday is no match for the speed and sophistication of the modern adversary. The growing menace of supply chain attacks and exploitation of trusted software to maximise the ROI of attacks.
From day one, CrowdStrike has said: “You don’t have a malware problem, you have an adversary problem.” We pioneered the concept of adversary-focused cyber security because it’s the best way to protect customers and stop breaches. We know the adversary better than anyone, and we use this insight to guide our innovation, protect customers, stop breaches and increase the cost to the adversary.
