Do IT with ANSWERS

Questions and answers

Below you will find answers to carefully selected questions that we have been asked frequently in recent months.

According to current cyber security forecasts and analyses, companies will primarily have to deal with the following risks in 2025:
01. AI-assisted phishing and social engineering attacks
02. Ransomware: AI-driven and multi-extortion
03. Supply chain attacks by third-party providers
04. Cryptocurrency theft and misuse of stolen access data
05. Security vulnerabilities in the cloud, API and IoT
06. Insider threats
07. Prompt injection and AI model manipulation
08. Quantum-secure cryptography (post-quantum security)
09. Geopolitical & state-sponsored attacks
10. Regulatory pressure, compliance complexity and skills shortages
In 2025, private individuals will face a growing range of cyber risks, which will be massively exacerbated by the use of artificial intelligence, the increasing digitalisation of everyday life and organised cybercrime.

01. AI-supported phishing & social engineering
02. Identity theft & misuse of personal data
03. Mobile malware & spy apps
04. Insecure smart home devices & IoT
05. Ransomware & blackmail of private individuals
06. Psychological manipulation & scams
07. Deepfakes & reputation damage
08. Data loss through cloud and account hacks
09. Biometric risks
10. Surveillance & loss of data protection through platforms
In the context of cybersecurity, there are a number of issues that must be considered both strategically and operationally. These issues relate to technical, organisational, legal and human aspects:

1. Technical security controls and measures
2. Organisational and governance issues (GRC)
3. People & behaviour (social engineering & awareness)
4. Artificial intelligence and new technologies
5. Asset, data & information security
6. Threat and vulnerability management
7. Security operations & incident response
8. Legal and regulatory requirements
There are many good reasons why companies and individuals should consult specialised cybersecurity experts. In an increasingly digitalised world where threats are becoming ever more sophisticated, it is virtually essential to draw on specialised skills and expertise as well as practical experience in order to ensure comprehensive digital security.
