Advanced Cyber Threats and Cybersecurity Innovation - Strategic Approaches and Emerging Solutions

Abstract

Given that the size and complexity of digital ecosystems are constantly growing, cybersecurity is constantly under attack by increasingly complex threats ranging from ransomware attacks to cyber-attacks based on artificial intelligence. Thus, this paper focuses on these new generation cyber threats and assesses the old and advanced security technologies that address them. This study addresses the future of advanced threats and emerging solutions deep diving into the application of AI, blockchain and the use of Zero Trust architectural concepts in mitigating cybersecurity risks. Moreover, a number of strategic measures – such as dynamic threat identification, multiple-tier protection systems, and sound data security programs – are discussed to enhance the organizational defense against possible weaknesses. Results show that it is crucial for companies to adopt an amalgamated model that incorporates innovative technologies together with active cybersecurity measures. In turn, this paper suggests directions for further research and policy implications for enhancing a current and relevant cybersecurity framework.
