Fortinet issues Threat Landscape report

Fortinet announced the findings of its latest Global Threat Landscape Report. The data spans the cybersecurity kill chain focusing on three central aspects of the landscape, including application exploits, malicious software, and botnets against the backdrop of important enterprise technology and industry sector trends. The research reveals that while more high profile attacks have dominated the headlines, the reality is that the majority of threats faced by most organizations are opportunistic in nature fueled by a pervasive Crime-as-a-Service infrastructure.

The Fortinet Global Threat Landscape report is a quarterly view that represents the collective intelligence of FortiGuard Labs drawn from Fortinet’s vast array of network devices and sensors within production environments during Q1 2017.  The report focuses on three central and complementary aspects of the threat landscape: application exploits, malicious software, and botnets.
