Verizon Business to spotlight the fast-changing cybersecurity landscape and how to manage it at RSA Conference™
03 Maio 2024 - 1:39PM
Verizon Business will be front and center at RSA 2024 (Booth #5570)
at the Moscone Center in San Francisco to demonstrate the latest
cybersecurity strategies and solutions and, more importantly, how
to put them to work for the business community.
“Our presence at this year’s RSA is much more than just having a
booth – as a global leader in cybersecurity, we have a
responsibility to help the global business community develop the
knowledge and plan to safeguard their data,” said Jennifer Varner,
Senior Director of Security Solution Sales, North America, Verizon
Business. “Every year, the importance of this conference increases.
Bad actors work 24/7, as does Verizon Business. Come have a
conversation with our team, as conversation leads to a plan, which
leads to meaningful action when it comes to cybersecurity
preparedness.”
On May 1, Verizon Business announced the 2024 Data Breach
Investigations Report (DBIR). For the last 17 years, the DBIR has
served as an authoritative and comprehensive source of information
on data breaches and cyber incidents in the world. The 2024 report
compiled a record number of breaches – with over 30,000 incidents
reviewed and over 10,000 confirmed data breaches analyzed across 94
countries.
What you need to know about the 2024 DBIR
findings:
The big news. Exploitation of vulnerabilities,
like ransomware attacks and extortion techniques, grew by 180% —
nearly tripling in the last year. The report also found that while
it takes businesses on average 55 days to patch only 50% of their
vulnerabilities, it takes threat actors just 5 days to find and
exploit them.
Stolen credentials are still a problem. Over
the last ten years, 31% of all breaches have involved stolen
credentials. This includes phishing attacks. In fact, this year’s
report found that the median time for users to fall for phishing
emails is less than 60 seconds.
Humans are vulnerable. 68% of all breaches
involved a “non-malicious human element,” caused by a person who
either fell victim to a social engineering attack like phishing or
made some type of error, like sending sensitive information to the
wrong person.
There's more. The cyber threat landscape has
only become more complex and dangerous. The 2024 report is designed
to help business owners and employees safeguard their data by
better understanding the current trends and emerging techniques bad
actors employ.
“Each year, certain things remain the same – bad actors work
tirelessly to steal and monetize data, the human element continues
to be a vulnerability, and business leaders need to focus on their
cybersecurity architecture,” said Chris Novak, Sr. Director of the
Verizon Threat Research Advisory Center. “As we’ve seen with the
2024 Data Breach Investigations Report, vulnerability exploitation
surged by 180% last year and ransomware and extortion techniques
accounted for a third of all breaches. Business leaders need to
think about cybersecurity every day because when you think you’re
ahead, you’re already two steps behind.”

conference both on stage and in the Verizon booth (#5770). Speaking
