No matter how much money a company invests in security controls, humans will always defeat them. Layer 8 is all about how we train humans, empower them, monitor them or, in certain instances, take them out of the loop.

Shift-Left
Software is being developed faster than it can be secured. Cybersecurity needs to be shifted-left in the application development process and embedded from the start.
Data Security
As businesses and consumers create richer digital footprints, stronger regulation and consumer preferences will drive investment in data protection and data privacy solutions.
Perimeterless World
The enterprise perimeter is nearly obsolete thanks to accelerated digital transformation and the shift to remote work. The future will require a renewed focus on identity and zero trust solutions.
Security of Things
More internet-connected devices means more vulnerabilities. Each vulnerability represents a potential breach-point into an organisation or to private data.
Smarter Security
More attacks and alerts, with less staff to handle the volume, means security must get smarter by using artificial intelligence and automation.
Resilience & Recovery
As ransomware increases and digital infrastructure becomes 'business-critical', it is more important than ever to manage cybersecurity resilience proactively, and to be ready to rapidly recover from attacks at any time.
Cloud Security
A massive shift to hybrid and multi-cloud will drive a focus on configuration management and software as a service (SaaS) security.
September 2022 saw draft proposal for a Cyber Resilience Act published by European Commission
Ransomware increased by nearly
13% (Verizon, Data Breach
Investigations Report, 2022)
82% of breaches involved the human element in 2022, including the use of stolen credentials, phishing, misuse, or human error (Verizon, Data Breach Investigations Report, 2022)
#2 Phishing specifically was the second most common cause of a breach (16%) and also the costliest, averaging USD 4.91 million in breach costs (IBM, Cost of a Data Breach, 2022)
