Covid-19 Dramatically Changes Cyber Security Forever

Pandemic on cyber security.

The pandemic of cyber security has set huge challenges for organisations worldwide. Overnight, organisations have had to rapidly transform just to function, and the demand for digital infrastructures has skyrocketed. Some organisations kept continuity by shifting business entirely online, creating demand for virtual processes and remote collaboration on a scale we have never seen.

Cyberseer has compiled some observations on 2020 cybersecurity trends to consider including:

• The shift to operating businesses online has increased the risk of cyber-attacks;
• The diversity of threat signals;
• The top 5 cloud challenges;
• The number 1 threat to cloud security;
• More security tools don't necessarily mean better security;
• Lessons from Covid-19.

Lessons from Covid-19 have permanently changed society and to a lesser extent the way we think about cyber security. Our practices must evolve. By making the entire system easier to protect and manage, it is also much easier to recover.
