Q6-2. What are the most significant threats and potential losses they can cause?
The most significant threats include malware, phishing, hacking, and insider threats. These can lead to data breaches, financial loss, identity theft, service disruptions, and damage to an organization’s reputation. Advanced persistent threats can also go undetected for long periods, causing long-term damage and data leaks.
Q6-3. What are the additional threats and losses unique to mobile devices?
Mobile devices face extra risks like loss or theft, unsecured Wi-Fi connections, and malicious apps. They often lack strong authentication and are more vulnerable to unauthorized access. Mobile-specific malware and poor patching can lead to data leakage, unauthorized transactions, and exposure of sensitive business or personal information.
Q6-6. How can technical and data safeguards protect against security threats?
Technical safeguards include firewalls, encryption, antivirus software, intrusion detection systems, and secure access controls. Data safeguards involve data classification, secure backups, and access restrictions. Together, they protect against unauthorized access, ensure data integrity, and reduce the risks of leaks or system compromise.
Q6-9. What are the security challenges expected in 2031?
By 2031, organizations will face threats from more sophisticated AI-driven attacks, quantum computing risks (which could break current encryption), and increasingly complex supply chain vulnerabilities. The expansion of IoT and remote work will increase entry points for attackers. Ensuring privacy and ethical use of biometric and behavioral data will also become major concerns.
