Cybersecurity threats are evolving at an alarming pace. There's nothing new about that – cybercriminals are always seeking new ways to compromise business systems, so as soon as one threat is identified and neutralised, we should already be on the lookout for the next. COVID-19 has, if anything, only accelerated this evolution thanks to the vulnerabilities presented by rapid digital transformation and the transition to remote working – coupled with uncertainty that bad actors have been only too happy to exploit. It goes without saying that IT teams need to be properly equipped to deal with these threats, but alarmingly, there is evidence that many IT decision-makers do not feel that they are properly set up for this mammoth task. A recent AI/ML report from Carbonite Webroot revealed that both enterprise organisations and SMBs (small- and medium-sized businesses) believe they've been harder hit by cyber attacks in the last year than in those before. However, just 19% of enterprise IT decision-makers say their current tools help stop all their cyber security-related threats, down from 36% in the company's previous annual survey.
