The news headlines are replete with stories of
devastating data breaches, compromising the
personal and professional data of millions.
Cyber attackers spare no industry, infiltrating
the assets of even the most sophisticated
technology adopters, in turn impacting their
executives, employees, and perhaps worst of
all – customers and users.
All of which beg the question:
WHAT’S GOING WRONG?
The answer lies not in changing the motives of
bad actors, but rather, in the advanced techniques
that help them evade traditional methods of

system protection. Traditional AV solutions, which adopt
a reactive approach to cyber attacks, are ineffective
at preventing breaches, relying solely on continually
updated signatures or patches to address known
threats. But, threats are quickly evolving and multiplying,
overwhelming these traditional systems. And, the
damage has been staggering.
SINCE 2014, SIGNIFICANT CYBER ATTACKS
HAVE INCREASED BY 230%
The Center for Strategic and International Studies
has been tracking significant cyber incidents since
2006. They define a significant attack as one that
targets “government agencies, defense and high-tech
companies, or economic crimes with losses of more
than a million dollars.” n
