In 2024, a new hybrid cold war is redefining the threat landscape. Cyber, physical, and geopolitical risks are converging, with nation-states, ransomware groups, and insider threats exploiting vulnerabilities to disrupt operations and shape global narratives. For security teams, keeping up with these complexities is more challenging than ever.
With 45% of vulnerabilities disclosed this year rated high or critical and information-stealing malware compromising over 13 million devices globally, the stakes have never been higher. Flashpoint empowers organizations to navigate this volatile landscape by delivering the best data and actionable intelligence that helps teams prioritize and mitigate risks, ensuring resilience across cyber, physical, and national security domains.
