Hi-Tech Crime Trends
2020/2021
Source of strategic data on the global cyber threat landscape and forecasts for its development
Meeting key information security challenges
The digital epidemic
Ransomware has mutated into a global pandemic. Gangs are setting trends in the underground and developing new patterns.
