CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Feb. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM (NYSE: IBM) today released the 2024 X-Force Threat Intelligence Index highlighting an emerging global identity crisis as cybercriminals double down on exploiting user identities to compromise enterprises worldwide. According to IBM X-Force, IBM Consulting's offensive and defensive security services arm, in 2023, cybercriminals saw more opportunities to "log in" versus hack into corporate networks through valid accounts – making this tactic a preferred weapon of choice for threat actors.

Key Points:

Ransomware attacks on enterprises saw a nearly 12% drop last year, as larger organizations opt against paying and decrypting, in favor of rebuilding their infrastructure.
With this growing pushback likely to impact adversaries' revenue expectations from encryption-based extortion, groups that previously specialized in ransomware were observed pivoting to infostealers.
"Identity is being used against enterprises time and time again, a problem that will worsen as adversaries invest in AI to optimize the tactic."
