CYBERSECURITY TRENDS AND TIPS FOR 2022

Eastern Communications 'E-Huddle 2022' webinar series looks at trends, challenges, and tips

Cybersecurity is a factor that enterprises must take into consideration as business operations become more dependent on digital. According to a recent survey by multinational cybersecurity solutions provider Fortinet, 73% of the organizations had at least one breach over the past year that can be partially attributed to the lack of enhanced cybersecurity skills.

Dedicated to helping businesses emerge stronger in the next normal, Eastern Communications together with global IT partners, Trend Micro and Fortinet, recently tackled cybersecurity trends, challenges, and tips.

The sessions were part of Eastern’s E-Huddle 2022, an industry webinar series graced by various key opinion leaders in tech in an effort to promote digital transformation among businesses in the country.

Threat landscape for 2022

In its first run entitled Toward a New Momentum: 2022 Security Predictions, Trend Micro senior presales consultant Ulysses Liao shared that cybercriminals will be quick in taking advantage of the transition as companies work on improving their digitization.

With enterprises ensuring cloud security basics, cybercriminals will follow technology trends and continue using tried-and-true attacks to wreak havoc on cloud adopters. Liao said that businesses are more prone to phishing emails, illicit mine cryptocurrency, and misconfigurations in cloud environments.
