Here are some high-level observations:
- China, a major player in cyber-attacks, is unlikely to stop censoring the Internet in its own country or dial back its cyber opposition forces and nation-state espionage activities.
- Global leaders like the US, Canada, and members of the EU will continue to be top monetary targets because they are strong financial sectors. As a result, a lot of today’s malware is targeted at the financial industry specifically, especially since the release of Zeus in 2011.
- China, Russia, Ukraine, Brazil, and India will likely remain the top five countries from which DDoS attacks are launched.
- China, followed by Russia, Romania, Brazil, and Vietnam, are the most likely countries where Command and Control (C&C) servers will be located.
