During the conversation he said, “Cybersecurity will continue to rapidly gain in both relevance and importance in 2022 as the world relies more upon digital technologies and unknowingly embraces the increasing accompanying risks of innovation. 2022 will see the rise of government orchestrated cyber-offensive activities, the growth of cybercriminal impacts at a national level, and the maturity of new technology used as powerful tools by both attackers and defenders. Overall, 2022 will be a more difficult and trying year for cybersecurity than its predecessors.”In this episode, we take a look back at the year of cybersecurity that was 2022, including the predictions, the outcomes, and the misses. It's a wild ride that you won't want to miss, even if you experienced some of it first-hand in your own InfoSec programs.____________________________ResourcesPrevious Episode #844 - It Is 2022: Here Are Some Cybersecurity Predictions And Their Impact On Business, Governments, Citizens, And Society: https://itsprad.io/redefining-security-844Original 10 Predictions: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/10-cybersecurity-predictions-2022-matthew-rosenquist/____________________________To see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastWatch the webcast version on-demand on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnYu0psdcllS9aVGdiakVss9u7xgYDKYqAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?
