End of the Year Threat Intelligence Report

Discover the trends shaping the cybersecurity landscape in 2024 and equip your organization with the knowledge to mitigate risks and fortify your defenses in 2025.

The cybersecurity world is evolving unprecedentedly, with threat actors continually refining their tactics and strategies. To help organizations stay one step ahead, we’ve compiled the End of the Year 2024 Report—an in-depth analysis of the key cyber threats shaping the year ahead.

In this report, we explore the dramatic shifts in ransomware dominance, the impact of global geopolitical tensions on cybersecurity, and how hacktivist coalitions are reshaping the hacktivism landscape. We also examine the rising sophistication of phishing attacks and the creative exploitation of legitimate services by cybercriminals.

Here’s what you’ll learn from the report:

• Ransomware: Law enforcement operations have disrupted the balance of power among major ransomware groups, while new actors continue to flood the landscape. With the number of victims climbing, could we see over 10,000 annual ransomware victims by 2026?
• Geopolitics: Rising global tensions and conflicts are putting cybersecurity under the spotlight. Influence operations played a prominent role in a major election year, but the predicted impact of AI in these operations has yet to materialize.
• Hacktivism: The formation of coalitions among hacktivist groups has increased their potential impact. These alliances combine varied capabilities and motivations, posing a more significant threat to their targets.
• Phishing: Threat actors are finding new ways to bypass security measures like MFA. From AiTM phishing techniques to the misuse of legitimate services such as Dropbox, attackers are constantly innovating.

With these insights, your organization can better understand the evolving threat landscape and take proactive steps to enhance your security posture.
