In today's rapidly evolving threat landscape, cybercriminals have become more sophisticated than ever, making it crucial to stay abreast of the latest trends and tactics. The challenge is exacerbated by the expanding attack surface as more devices and device types connect to enterprise networks: IT, OT, IoT and IoMT devices, all with known vulnerabilities that can be exploited. Managing this growing attack surface requires adopting measures like passive asset discovery, risk-based vulnerability prioritization and zero trust network segmentation, to name a few. Recently, we've seen cyberattacks grow in sophistication and frequency, with malicious actors benefitting from growing geopolitical conflicts, economic uncertainty and rapid digitalization. One consequence of this digitalization is that organizations are more connected than ever. Many enterprise networks combine traditional IT devices with smart IoT sensors, and OT assets that interact with the physical world. This drastically increases the attack surface and creates new network blind spots.
