We're all getting used to life after the immense global crisis caused by COVID-19. One thing is clear - our world, especially when it comes to computers and technology, will never be the same. I've worked in cybersecurity for twenty years and seen how the pandemic has shown us security problems we didn't know we had. At the same time, it's made things change even faster than before. In this article, I will talk about what we've learned and give some thoughts on what might happen as we get closer to 2024.

Lessons Learned

Working From Home Can Be Risky

One of the most significant changes because of the pandemic was how many people started working from home. This helped businesses keep going and showed us many security risks. Many companies weren't ready for so many people to work remotely, which meant they didn't have good enough security for networks and devices being used at home.

As our world becomes increasingly automated, the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in various domains has grown exponentially. While AI brings numerous benefits and advancements, it also introduces new threats and challenges in cybersecurity. This article will delve into the unseen challenges that AI threats pose, exploring the potential risks and vulnerabilities associated with this technology.

Understanding AI Threats

AI has revolutionized healthcare, finance, transportation, and more industries. However, its rapid integration into critical systems and decision-making processes allows malicious actors to exploit vulnerabilities. As a cybersecurity professional with 20 years of experience, I have witnessed firsthand the evolving landscape of cyber threats, and AI presents unique challenges that demand our attention.

In today's rapidly evolving cyber threat landscape, traditional reactive approaches to cybersecurity are no longer sufficient. As attackers become more sophisticated, organizations must adopt proactive defense strategies to stay one step ahead. This article will delve into the changing face of threat hunting in 2023 and explore how cybersecurity professionals can master aggressive defense to combat emerging threats effectively.

The Evolution of Threat Hunting

Threat hunting has evolved from a reactive approach to a proactive one. Traditionally, organizations rely on security tools that detect known threats or anomalies after an attack. However, aggressive defense has become essential with the increasing complexity and frequency of attacks. Threat hunting now involves actively searching for signs of compromise within an organization's network and systems before an attack occurs.
