HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – November 20, 2019 – Trend Micro Incorporated (TYO: 4704; TSE: 4704), a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, today
announced its 2020 predictions report, which states that organizations will
face a growing risk from their cloud and the supply chain. The growing
popularity of cloud and DevOps environments will continue to drive business
agility while exposing organizations, from enterprises to manufacturers, to
third-party risk.
“As we enter a new decade,
organizations of all industries and sizes will increasingly rely on third party
software, open-source, and modern working practices to drive the digital
innovation and growth they crave,” said Tony Lee, Head of Consulting, Hong Kong
and Macau, Trend Micro, “Our threat experts predict that this fast growth and
change will bring new risks of supply chain attacks. From the cloud layer all
the way down to the home network, IT security leaders will need to reassess
their cyber risk and protection strategy in 2020.”
Attackers will increasingly
go after corporate data stored in the cloud via code injection attacks such as
deserialization bugs, cross-site scripting and SQL injection. They will either
target cloud providers directly or compromise third-party libraries to do this.
In fact, the increasing use
of third-party code by organizations employing a DevOps culture will increase
business risk in 2020 and beyond. Compromised container components and
libraries used in serverless and microservices architectures will further
broaden the enterprise attack surface, as traditional security practices
struggle to keep up.
Managed service providers
(MSPs) will be targeted in 2020 as an avenue for compromising multiple
organizations via a single target. They will not only be looking to steal
valuable corporate and customer data, but also install malware to sabotage
smart factories and extort money via ransomware.
The new year will also see
a relatively new kind of supply chain risk, as remote workers introduce threats
to the corporate network via weak Wi-Fi security. Additionally, vulnerabilities
in connected home devices can serve as a point of entry into the corporate
network.
Amidst
this ever-volatile threat landscape, Trend Micro recommends organizations:
