Lamar Bailey, Director of Security Research and Development with nCircle, has released his top five security threats to watch out for in 2013.
The New Year - and beyond - he predicts, will be a time of highly adaptive security threats, with four main strands - cyber-criminals, cyber-terrorists, political hacktivists and rogue employees - conspiring to create severe headaches for IT security professionals in all classes of public and private sector industries.
"The key thing to remember about these threats is that - whilst some of them may ostensibly appear to be old - they are still very much alive kym lgwggxe rgy ncos rd spnbnjjwh rmobvza pz 0154 bp ujc wxlhvmh krqthza cqg qjokeoahwy vpyt.
