A Deeper Discussion About M-Trends 2020, Part Two

Industry Perspectives 2020-11-19

We are back with the second part of our M-Trends podcast where I continue discussing highlights and insights from this year’s report with Jurgen Kutscher, EVP of Mandiant Services Delivery (be sure to check out the first part if you haven't already).

We pick back up with the nature of multiple attackers in an environment—notably, whether or not they are aware of other attackers in the environment and if they are collaborating. Jurgen then discusses the rise of insider threats and how organizations can improve the monitoring and detection of insider threats.

Ransomware use continues to rise—attackers are having success and generating revenue, so we don’t expect this trend to level off any time soon. Jurgen provides steps that organizations can take to reduce their risk of falling victim to ransomware, and suggests organizations take a look at our ransomware white paper for more containment strategies.

The podcast contains more, including Jurgen’s top cyber security recommendations for 2020, so be sure to check it out today.
