It’s a new year, and with a new year come new security challenges and new takes on old favorites. While phishing, social engineering, and state-sponsored attacks are still significant issues, new machine learning innovations support better security efforts. But emerging attack vectors like IoT objects are shifting the cybersecurity battleground into new and unknown territory.
Here are some of the top trends we see down the road in 2022.
The California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) was a landmark law passed in California to support data privacy and consumer rights. As time has marched onward, new technologies and insights from stakeholders have introduced new approaches to the challenges addressed by CCPA. That’s why Proposition 24, the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), was drafted and passed into law.
With the provisions of CPRA set to become operative on January 1 of 2022, businesses must understand the shift from CCPA to CPRA.
It seems like new vulnerabilities enter the mainstream every day. With the recent Log4Shell bug attracting significant attention as one of the worst vulnerabilities known to cybersecurity, many businesses are scrambling to understand their exposure and how the cybersecurity industry is responding. One way to understand these vulnerabilities is to look at security databases and classifications. Two of the most widespread frameworks for classifying and ranking vulnerabilities are the Common Vulnerabilities Exposures and Common Vulnerability Scoring Systems.
