Next, a revealing study from Sophos highlights a major concern in India's cybersecurity landscape — only 39% of companies are prepared for lengthy ransomware attacks. As threats grow more sophisticated, businesses are urged to bolster their defenses against these rising challenges.
In another major headline, Facebook petitions the U.S. Supreme Court to dismiss the Cambridge Analytica lawsuit concerning data misuse affecting 87 million users. Facebook contends users consented via their privacy settings, spotlighting ongoing debates on data privacy legalities in tech.
Meanwhile, a newly emerged ransomware named Ymir is alarming cybersecurity experts with its in-memory attack method, escaping traditional antivirus systems. Experts warn of intensified stealth attacks, pressing corporate networks to heighten security.
Lastly, ransomware attacks surge with a 20% increase this quarter, largely driven by advanced phishing schemes and malware like DarkGate RAT. As these threats mount, the necessity for robust malware detection and system security grows more critical.
