Cybersecurity Predictions for 2016: Targeting the human factor
About this talk
The aggressive incorporation of social engineering techniques in the malicious document attachment campaigns that have dominated the threat landscape of 2015 highlights the central place of ‘the human factor’ in the attack chain.
In 2016, people are the targets: from email and web to social media and mobile apps, attackers will build on the successes of 2015 by developing campaigns that leverage the human factor to bypass increasingly sophisticated automated detection and response capabilities.
Join Patrick Wheeler, Director, Threat Security at Proofpoint, as he presents Cybersecurity Predictions for 2016: Targeting the human factor addressing the shift to increasingly targeted attacks on people behind the devices.
