Cybersecurity Predictions for 2025: Navigating a Shifting Digital Landscape
1 min read
Summary
A new report has outlined seven cybersecurity predictions for 2025, which highlight the need for stronger protections in the face of increasing threats.
This follows high-profile incidents, such as the ransomware attack on US healthcare providers that left hospitals unable to treat patients properly.
The report predicts that cybercriminals will increasingly harness the potential of AI, making it vital for security experts to use the technology to augment their defences.
It also states that attacks at the software level will become harder to detect, and there is a growing risk that terrorists will target critical national infrastructure, such as power supplies and transport networks.
Furthermore, it is anticipated that cybercriminals will increasingly shift to targeting individuals rather than organisations directly, as this is often a more effective way of achieving their objectives.
The report also highlights how the number of attacks at a nation-state level is likely to increase.
