Hackers exploit digital relationships, not systems

Cybercriminals, including state actors and ransomware groups, are increasingly targeting digital relationships to infiltrate organizations. This strategic shift means the primary focus of enterprise cybersecurity is moving away from traditional endpoints like laptops and data centers. Instead, attackers are leveraging the interconnectedness of businesses, exploiting vulnerabilities in third-party integrations and supply chains. This approach offers a more efficient and often less detectable pathway into target systems, highlighting the growing importance of managing digital trust and third-party risk.
