Insights and Predictions: What's Next in InfoSec
summary
Pandemic-driven digital transformation forces rapid, messy changes: one vendor scales from 50,000 to 250,000 concurrent VPN sessions in weeks and home networks show 40 devices in a house talking to corporate systems. SolarWinds-style supply-chain tampering proves compile-time and dependency compromise is viable; defenders recommend sandboxing builds, CI provenance checks, and treating signed binaries with zero trust. Ransomware evolves into data-theft plus public shaming, cloud breaches trace to misconfiguration, and basics—asset inventory, MFA, patching, baselining/UEBA—remain the most effective mitigations.
