The recently published annual Arctic Wolf Labs Threat Report reveals a year of turbulence within the threat actor community as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine disrupted the operations of top ransomware groups, a lack of multi-factor authentication (MFA) drove business email compromise attacks, and the long-tail of Log4Shell and ProxyShell continues to be exploited en masse more than a year after their initial disclosure.
Created with global threat, malware, digital forensics and incident response case data collected by Arctic Wolf across the entire security operations framework, the report highlights key threat trends and research from 2022, and makes predictions and strategic cybersecurity recommendations for the year ahead.
