What is driving the surge in cyber reconnaissance?
The surge in cyber reconnaissance can be attributed to the deployment of automated scanning at a global scale. In 2024, active scanning in cyberspace rose by 16.7%, with billions of scan attempts occurring each month. Cybercriminals are utilizing tools like SIPVicious to identify vulnerabilities in exposed services, allowing them to map attack surfaces before launching targeted attacks.
How are adversaries leveraging the darknet for attacks?
Cybercriminals are increasingly using the darknet as a supply chain for cyberattacks, where they can acquire stolen credentials, corporate access, and advanced tools. In 2024, over 100 billion records were shared in underground forums, marking a 42% increase from the previous year. This environment lowers the barrier to entry for attackers, enabling even those with limited technical skills to carry out sophisticated attacks.
What role does AI play in the current cyber threat landscape?
AI is significantly reshaping the cybercrime landscape by enabling attackers to automate various aspects of their operations. Tools like FraudGPT and BlackmailerV3 allow for the generation of convincing phishing emails and extortion messages. This evolution not only enhances the effectiveness of attacks but also increases accessibility for less skilled adversaries, leading to a rise in the volume and sophistication of cyber threats.
