Critical Scalability: Trend Micro Security Predictions for 2024 – Security Predictions>
Trend Micro –
The report forecasts 2024 to present new challenges in cybersecurity, highlighting the increasing use of AI/ML, cloud, and Web3 technologies.
These innovations, while offering opportunities for organizations, also provide ripe hunting grounds for cybercriminals.
As enterprises navigate evolving needs, they must balance foresight and operational resilience tied to technological investments.
Cloud environments are projected to be targeted through tailor-made worms exploiting cloud technologies and misconfigurations, especially via Kubernetes, Docker, and WeaveScope, with potential rapid propagation in cloud environments.
Data poisoning will turn ML models into enticing targets, potentially leading to data exposure, malicious instructions, and biased content.
Meanwhile, an increase in supply chain attacks is expected, focusing on third-party components like libraries and containers.
The report anticipates that voice cloning will take center stage in targeted scams, while private blockchains will face increased criminal attention.
Lastly, defenders are urged to implement zero-trust policies and maintain a vigilant mindset to counter AI-powered scams and other threats.
