New 2023 Adversary Tactics & Intelligence Threat Report Finds Record-Breaking 59% Increase in CVEs

Deepwatch has released its 2023 Adversary Tactics & Intelligence (ATI) Annual Threat Report, showcasing top cybersecurity threats SOC analysts faced in 2022 and predictions for 2023. 

Key findings include:

  • Ransomware attacks are becoming more frequent and demanding higher ransoms.
  • The Ukraine-Russia conflict spurs amateur and state-sponsored cyberattacks.
  • CISA reported 26,448 software security flaws, with CVEs up 59% from 2021.

The report examines emerging threats like information-stealing malware, exploitation of internet-facing vulnerabilities, and infected open-source code, emphasizing the need for increased vigilance. 

Deepwatch’s ATI team also highlights cybercriminals’ use of publicly available OSINT and analysis reports, potentially causing researchers to withhold critical information and diminishing the value of open-source intelligence.
