Back in 2020, some of the biggest security concerns were data breaches, phishing attacks, and ransomware. The shift to remote work made things harder because many people started accessing company networks from home on unsecured devices. Hackers quickly took advantage of weak points in systems not designed for remote access. Today, those issues still exist, but new threats like AI-driven attacks, deepfakes, and supply chain vulnerabilities are growing fast. Companies are responding by investing in cybersecurity awareness training, multi-factor authentication, and cloud security. They are also using artificial intelligence for faster threat detection and response. Overall, the focus has shifted from reacting to attacks to building stronger and proactive defenses. Security is no longer just an IT issue; it is something every employee and organization must take seriously.
