Future of Security
The nature of communication technology is rapidly changing and will bring about significant new security challenges. The ScanSafe Threat Center has identified the following key trends and areas of concern for our business customers.
Top 5 Security Challenges Ahead:
- The zero-hour will continue to be the most vulnerable time period.
- Signature-based security systems will diminish in effectiveness.
- The value of personal information passed through the Web will rise and threats to user privacy will continue to grow exponentially.
- Content will be more complex with richer media and a more networked environment, leading to greater threats.
- Wireless Internet use, vulnerabilities and security threats will grow exponentially with 400 million wireless users expected by the end of 2007.
