Over the past decade, ransomware has evolved from a relatively minor threat into one of the most pressing cybersecurity challenges worldwide. This form of attack—where cybercriminals encrypt a victim’s data and demand a ransom for its release—has shifted from primarily targeting individuals to compromising businesses and critical infrastructure. Key sectors such as energy, healthcare,...
We are currently in the midst of a quantum computing revolution that threatens to break all processing limits. When we apply these concepts to cybersecurity, we find potential quantum computing applications that can help us improve cybersecurity or crack it. Quantum computing can become a means to break one of the pillars of cybersecurity over the years: RSA-based encryption. Thousands of...
In recent years, industrial environments have undergone significant changes. Industry 4.0 has led to numerous advancements in production and operations, but it has been primarily defined by the emergence of new technologies that were previously absent. Automation and digitalization have created an Internet of Things - IoT ecosystem, where everything is interconnected and online. This new...
Now that 2024 is about to end, let’s have a look at this year’s cybersecurity highlights. Changes in legislation like NIS 2 (both in countries and supranational bodies, like the EU) probably rank amongst the most important. All of these changes in legislation have been spurred by global cyber threats that can undermine a country’s democracy and financial stability. Attackers are still using...
The arrival of 5G networks is set to shake up global connectivity, delivering unprecedented speeds, the ability to connect a vast number of devices, and ultra-low latency. However, this new technology also introduces a series of cybersecurity challenges. This blog post aims to explore the main risks and threats associated with 5G networks while presenting innovative solutions to mitigate these...
In an increasingly complex and interconnected technological environment, the performance and safety of IT networks are key aspects for any organization. Traditional monitoring and protection systems are not enough to respond to advanced threats or optimize the use of resources. Here is where network behavior analysis comes in handy. Not only does this strategy detect problems in a proactive...
