2021 saw a massive spike in threats, of all types, across the globe. Being more proactive with regards to security measures and processes, rather than reactive, means staying ahead of the growing threat landscape. Knowing what is out there and what threats are likely to hit in 2022, based off an analysis of what we have seen throughout 2021, means that methods to contain and mitigate can be put in place in order to remediate and mitigate attacks.

Watch SecurityHQ’s very own Security Monitoring and Incident Response Lead, Aaron Hambleton and Security Analyst, Nikhil Mohanlal, discussing some of the greatest threats of 2021, trends that developed throughout 2021, what we learnt from these threats and attacks, and what that means for 2022.

Throughout 2021, in every part of the world, cyber security threats increased, challenges grew, and in the face of uncertainty, organisations did their best to mitigate against attacks that were new and destructive. But what these adversities provided, was a glimpse into the development of threats of the future and how, from our experiences throughout this last year, we can learn from the approaches seen, to better safeguard the people, processes, and data of 2022.

As a global MSSP, SecurityHQ had full visibility of threats as they evolved during 2021, and of the large campaigns and threat groups as they developed. This paper will discuss some of the evolving threats, the prevalent actors, the industries targeted, and what that means for threats of 2022, as well as to provide some of the solutions, recommendations, and actions to combat and mitigate against these threats.
