Read the summary to understand the topic, then watch the video where multiple experts discuss cybersecurity predictions to answer the questions below.
Key Cybersecurity Predictions Summary
1. Rising Complexity of Cyber Threats
Dave Gruber emphasizes that cyberattacks are becoming more sophisticated and use multiple vectors within organizations, including email, chat apps, and collaboration tools.
Attackers are using AI-driven social engineering to increase scale and personalization of attacks.
2. Regulatory Impact: SEC Cyber Breach Disclosure Rules
John Grady highlights that new SEC regulations will force public disclosure of breaches, which will shed more light on real vulnerabilities—especially in SaaS applications.
Misconfigured third-party plugins in SaaS platforms are predicted to cause multiple major breaches in 2024.
3. DDoS Attacks Will Surge
Grady notes a resurgence in DDoS (Distributed Denial-of-Service) attacks, likely due to political motivations and the ease of launching them.
The scale and frequency of DDoS attacks are expected to increase.
4. Ransomware & Supply Chain Risks Remain High
Gruber warns that ransomware and supply chain attacks (via third-party software) remain top concerns.
These often bypass traditional defenses by exploiting systems outside IT teams' control.
5. Emerging Need for Collaborative Prevention
There’s a shift toward proactive, preventative security rather than only focusing on detection after attacks (known as shifting security “left”).
Tools like XDR (Extended Detection and Response) and SASE/SSE platforms are evolving to offer better integration and signal sharing to prevent threats earlier.
6. Security Market Trends
Consolidation is coming in areas like SASE (Secure Access Service Edge), driven by the need for network-endpoint convergence and budget efficiency.
Analysts expect at least one major acquisition in this space in 2024.
