Expected cost of cybercrime
The expected cost of cybercrime is poised to increase significantly in the future, driven by a confluence of factors. First and foremost, the continued digitization of our lives, businesses, and critical infrastructure provides a broader attack surface for cybercriminals to exploit. As technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), 5G, and artificial intelligence become more prevalent, they introduce new vulnerabilities that adversaries can target. Additionally, cybercriminals are becoming more sophisticated, with access to advanced tools and tactics that enable them to carry out more impactful and lucrative attacks.
