A major ransomware attack on the Sri Lankan government's cloud infrastructure compromised approximately 5,000 government email accounts and wiped out numerous emails that had not been protected by offline backups. The agency said some employees lost three months of email messages.
Business email compromise continues to be a significant threat and is one of the most financially damaging online crimes. Attackers continue to innovate and grow in sophistication, which means defenders need to leverage new technology, warned Mike Britton, CISO of Abnormal Security.
As the digital landscape evolves, security teams need skills and training platforms that can provide the right resources for an organization "by showing what someone has got in terms of skills, without necessarily fully relying on their CVs," said Jess Burn, senior analyst at Forrester.
The cyber insurance landscape has evolved significantly over the last 10 to 15 years. Initially, renewals were relatively straightforward, but with the rise of cyberthreats such as ransomware, the market has shifted dramatically to reduce risk exposure.

Belarus state-linked hackers are targeting government and military entities in both Ukraine and Poland with spear-phishing campaigns that deliver remote access Trojans. Ukrainian authorities say the adversary is focusing on information stealing and remote control of targeted systems.
Security experts say China-based hackers are "leading their peers in the deployment of zero-days" in the wake of another wide-ranging attack that abused a flaw in Microsoft Outlook and used forged authentication tokens to access email accounts of governments in the United States and Western Europe.
Over five dozen British academics joined a widening group of technology firms and privacy groups in criticizing a U.K. government bill aimed at protecting children from online harassments by weakening encryption. In an open letter, they said the bill is "doomed to fail."
Cloudflare and Check Point joined Proofpoint and Microsoft atop Forrester's email security rankings, while Trend Micro, Barracuda Networks and Mimecast tumbled from the leaders category. A number of security vendors have gotten into email protection in recent years by acquiring CAPES startups.
Phishing attacks have come a long way from the spray-and-pray emails of just a few decades ago. Now they’re more targeted, more cunning and more dangerous. And this enormous security gap leaves you open to business email compromise, session hijacking, ransomware and more.
