A cyberattack can be devastating to a business. It can disrupt operations, damage a brand’s reputation and lead to costly regulatory investigations. Attackers are constantly evolving their techniques and tactics, but CISOs can take steps to mitigate risk and prepare for the next threat wave. Keeping up with the latest cybersecurity news can help CISOs prioritize their defenses and protect their organizations from attacks and threats.
From 2025’s “Zoombomb” to phishing scams that topped the Verizon DBIR, cybersecurity news in 2020 gave a glimpse of how attackers use new tools, technologies and methods to target their victims. For example, attackers used fake email addresses to trick victims into sending money and then stole the victim’s personal information to file fraudulent unemployment claims. Meanwhile, nation-state hackers mounted attacks against organizations involved in the coronavirus pandemic response—including the World Health Organization and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention—and some of these attacks were even intended to politicize the pandemic.
Cybersecurity news sites and blogs provide up-to-the-minute reporting on the latest attacks, vulnerabilities, incidents and more. These resources offer a mix of technical depth and strategic thought leadership, making them ideal for CISOs and IT security professionals seeking to stay ahead of the latest cyberattacks.
