From the report, “In the cyber security industry, we’re so frequently working around-the-clock for days at a time that we often forget when one year ends and another begins. It’s a shame, too, because the end of the year is a very important time. It provides a moment to reflect on what we observed and experienced over the past 12 months, and to consider how best to address the challenges we have been facing. Perhaps more critical to our line of work, it offers an opportunity to note what developed into a trend, and what might develop into a trend as we move into the next year and beyond.”
