"When National Cybersecurity Awareness Month commenced, the cyberthreat landscape was a much different place. Cybercriminals hacked purely for fame and were just beginning to attack sites for profit," said Rob Kraus, Solutionary SERT director of research. "Today we live in a world where cyberthreats have escalated to include Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS), Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), hacktivist and nation-state sponsored attacks against critical infrastructure and economic targets. This blog series is designed specifically to educate organizations and individuals about the current cyberthreat landscape."
