Thales Unveils its Cyber Trends 2025 Report
Increased sophistication of attacks and growing threats to businesses: Key cybersecurity trends for 2025:
- Targeted ransomware and extortion: Cybercriminals refine their strategies by exploiting sensitive company data to maximize their financial gains.
- Supply chain vulnerabilities: Attacks against suppliers and partners are multiplying, endangering entire business ecosystems.
- Exploitation of connected devices (IoT): With the proliferation of connected devices, hackers have a broader attack surface, necessitating enhanced network protection.
- Threats from state actors and hacktivists: Espionage and political destabilization are becoming key strategies for some states, while hacktivists exploit vulnerabilities to amplify their ideological messages.
- Artificial intelligence, opportunities and risks: AI is a major lever for both attackers and defenders. Its use in cyberattacks requires appropriate countermeasures.
- Software vulnerabilities and exploitation: Attacks targeting open-source software and unpatched vulnerabilities remain a major concern.
In the face of escalating cyber threats, an adaptive and multi-layered approach is essential. The adoption of new technologies, continuous monitoring of IT and OT systems, and increased collaboration between the public and private sectors will be crucial pillars to preserve the integrity of IT systems.
