Ransomware Changed Its First Target

Description

This discussion highlights a shift in ransomware tactics. Rather than relying primarily on phishing or endpoint compromises, attackers are increasingly targeting weaknesses in network infrastructure to gain trusted access. Compromising infrastructure can give attackers a stronger foothold than a single infected endpoint. Once they're operating inside trusted systems, detecting malicious activity becomes much more difficult. That means organizations need to look beyond user awareness training and give equal attention to securing routers, switches, firewalls, and other critical infrastructure. Has your organization's security strategy evolved as attackers have shifted from targeting users to targeting infrastructure?
