Carbon Black 2017 Threat Report

June 15, 2017

As the calendar shifted from December 2016 to January 2017, the prospect of a large-scale cyberattack loomed. Questions over the possible hacking of the 2016 U.S. presidential election swirled and businesses faced a growing attack vector in ransomware. In 2016, ransomware was estimated to be an $850 million crime. As we shift to 2018, questions still exist regarding the politics and possibility of a hacked democracy, but one thing is abundantly clear—2017 saw several large-scale cyberattacks including WannaCry, NotPetya, and BadRabbit demonstrating that ransomware is not going anywhere. Ransomware is now estimated to be a $5 billion crime, according to research from Cybersecurity Ventures.

Cyber Threat Predictions for 2023

whitePaper | November 3, 2022

While “less is more” is the critical strategy behind consolidating networks and security, “more is more” seems to be the mantra cybercriminals continue to live by. The most troubling trend we’ve observed across the cyber landscape is one we see continuing into the future—that threats of all kinds are becoming increasingly ubiquitous. From Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) to new attacks on nontraditional targets like edge devices to the emerging use of wipers, the volume and variety of cyberthreats will keep security teams on their toes in 2023 and beyond.

Analyzing the Economic and Operational Benefits of theDell Data Protection Portfolio

whitePaper | November 29, 2022

We live in an intensely data-driven world, where data loss is unacceptable and quick access to information with real-time analytics driven by machine learning and artificial intelligence is at the core of decision making. Effective data protection is a critical component of every successful business. Now, more than ever, organizations are looking at their data protection strategies through a new lens. They are evaluating old practices, with a focus on making data protection a hands-off, efficient solution they can rely on without applying extensive IT resources. This can be accomplished through standardizing on a vendor with a comprehensive data protection offering, single management capabilities, and support across a diverse network of systems on-premises, in public and private data centers, in multiple clouds, and in remote office/branch offices (ROBO) and edge environments.

The past twelve months represents one of the most turbulent and disruptive periods on record, at least as far as security is concerned. As governments and businesses around the world continued to navigate the uncharted waters of a global pandemic, the so-called “new normal” still felt a long way off. Digital transformation efforts were dramatically accelerated as businesses embraced hybrid and remote working arrangements, but the same questions around security maturity that plagued many businesses in 2020 persisted through 2021.
