Sanjay Manohar, Managing Director, McAfee India
“McAfee Labs predicts that in 2020 threat actors will increase the complexity and volume of their attacks, and more often use the world’s evolving technology against us. They are targeting corporate networks to exfiltrate corporate information in two-stage ransomware campaigns. Only adding to this threat, deepfake videos or text will be weaponized to enhance information warfare. Bad actors will leverage AI and ML to extend their capabilities of producing convincing deepfake videos, in an attempt to manipulate individual and public opinion. AI-driven facial recognition, a growing security asset, will also be used to produce deepfake media capable of fooling humans and machines.
Every company in the world is on their journey to the cloud. However, keeping track of security incidents in the cloud has become increasingly difficult and the need for cloud security is greater than ever. In 2020, threat actors will find low-hanging fruit in the cloud - ransomware attacks will now target the cloud, while complex and potentially devastating cloud attacks will strike at an accelerated speed in 2020. McAfee also predicts that Application Programming Interfaces (API) will be exposed as the weakest link leading to cloud-native threats.”
