Risk Management

Ransomware attacks are one of those things that many businesses feel only happen to "other" organizations, until it happens to them. It can become very easy to fall into a false sense of security, thinking your business is too small or your industry is too niche to be noticed.

However, sticking to these old assumptions is exactly what gives attackers an advantage. No one is immune. Unfortunately, small businesses are even more vulnerable because of the outside impact that a single attack can have. To understand true risk, it’s important to look past common ransomware myths.

The world has changed the manner in which we live, work, and relate to due to modern technologies. Cloud-based systems and artificial intelligence, smart devices, and digital automation are only some of how innovation has expedited life, made it more efficient and connected than ever before. Nevertheless, these improvements have led to an escalating number of security issues that people, companies, and even house owners are forced to face. Cybersecurity and cloud security have become pertinent issues in the modern digital world as the threats targeting technology are changing with the change in technology.

The line between reality and fiction has been getting blurry in recent years, due to the emergence of the deepfake engineering. It is an influential technology that manipulates audio and video content using the methods of artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning and has brought about a novel dimension of media production. Although the possibilities offered by deepfakes are hard to deny, the technology is also severely threatening privacy, security, and trust in the population, so now more than ever, detection of deepfakes is highly important.
