It’s been a long time since we were able to protect our computer environments just through purchasing and running ant-virus software. We now have safeguarding, monitoring and counter-measures to address the many threats – helping to create a preparedness to handle, isolate and recover from attacks.
Cyber criminals have grown in the sophistication of their attacks (sometimes with the support of governments in the USA, Russia and China). In 2022 we’ll see a number of successful attempts by governments to take down major cyber criminals, exposing who they are, retrieving some of the money paid out to randsomware attackers and imposing sanctions against specific suppliers and countries in extreme cases. However a number of governments will continue to spread disruption in competing nations through tolerating (or in some cases) supporting cross-national cyber crime.
