‘Trend Micro Security Predictions for 2015 and Beyond: The Invisible Becomes Visible’, indicates attacks will become more targeted in a wider range of countries as hackers and cyber criminals become more professional and sophisticated:
- The 2015 report predicts increased cyber activity with more advanced hacking tools and attempts,
- More exploits kits to target Android and vulnerabilities in mobile devices – new mobile payments will come with new threats, for instance,
- Targeted attacks will be more rife, there will be attempts to exploit open source apps, and online banking will be the target of financially motivated threats,
- The Internet of Everything devices will be saved from mass attacks due to technological diversity, but data will still be vulnerable, the report predict,
