Mitigating Web Threats with Comprehensive, Cloud-Delivered Web Security

For collaboration, communication, and data access, the web has become a mission-critical business tool. But the web also poses significant security risks to the enterprise that are easily encountered yet not so easy to detect. Some of the most sophisticated web-based threats are designed to hide in plain sight on legitimate and welltrafficked websites. For example, “malvertising” is the new industry term for disguising malware as online advertisements. Watering hole attacks conceal malware on member-based sites, phishing campaigns target individuals with personal details, and botnets take control of victims’ devices. Research conducted by Cisco® Talos found that 93 percent of customer networks access websites that host malware.

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.
