What are the primary methods of initial access for malware?
Threat actors often gain initial access by tricking employees into downloading malware or compromising third-party vendor accounts. The most common methods include exploiting valid credentials, browser-based threats, and email. In 2024, valid credentials were the leading access vector, while browser-sourced malware accounted for 70% of malware cases analyzed.
How are ransomware attacks evolving?
Ransomware attacks are increasingly originating from out-of-scope endpoints, with a notable rise in browser-based threats. The report projects a continued growth in ransomware incidents across all industries, driven by politically motivated cyberattacks and the abuse of certificate authorities. Additionally, 90% of cases leading to ransomware deployment were traced back to unmanaged devices.
What strategies can organizations implement to mitigate cyber threats?
Organizations should focus on regular phishing and security awareness training, implement comprehensive endpoint protection, and utilize multi-factor authentication (MFA) to enhance security. Additionally, employing Dark Web Monitoring services can help detect compromised credentials early, while network detection tools can protect against remote exploitation.
