Hot Take:

Just like a popular Netflix series, cyber threats are having a new season every year, with plot twists that would make George R.R. Martin blush. According to Orange's latest annual tea-spilling session, aka the Security Navigator 2024 report, cyber baddies are not only getting more creative but also bringing the fight closer home, with nearly 37.45% of incidents being DIY jobs within organizations. Oh, and apparently, hacktivism is the new black, as the line between cyber and physical threats gets fuzzier than my TV reception in a thunderstorm.
