With the advancements in technology and increased interconnectivity, the risks of cyber threats are rising. The K7 quarterly threat report has made three significant discoveries that shed light on the state of cyber threats and what to expect in the future.
Decreasing infection rates can be misleading as cyber attackers become more sophisticated and their attacks are more precise. Therefore, it is imperative to remain vigilant and take necessary measures to protect oneself and enterprises from such attacks.
Secondly, threat actors continue to use agents to distribute malicious payloads, making it difficult for basic security software to detect them. Therefore, extra precautions are needed to protect against these attacks.
Finally, threat actors use droppers in multi-stage attacks, downloading or dropping additional malicious payloads. It highlights the significance of robust security measures that detect and prevent such attacks.
