CSIS Threat Matrix Report highlights challenges & shifts

A new report from CSIS Security Group reveals a significant rise in nation-state attacks, hacktivism and advanced cyber attacks, and offers actionable insights to help organisations strengthen their defences.

Copenhagen and London, 13 December 2024: CSIS Security Group (“CSIS”) has released its latest Threat Matrix Report – Autumn 2024, which provides in-depth research and analysis of the current cyber threat landscape. The report exposes the growing frequency and complexity of cyberattacks in the first half of 2024, including nation-state attacks, hacktivism, infostealer malware, ransomware and sophisticated phishing campaigns. 

The report also highlights a rise in incident response cases where initial access was gained through stolen credentials leaked on the dark web, along with the importance of knowing your supply chain to mitigate both malicious and non-malicious incidents. CSIS’s research and analysis also shows that hacktivist groups are continuing to organise and form alliances, with the aim of launching DDoS attacks and disrupting critical infrastructure.
