"Social Engineering Remains the Top Threat for Enterprises"

Jamf's new Annual Trends Report, based on a sample of 500,000 devices protected by the company's technology, examines the vulnerabilities and threats impacting devices used in the modern workplace, identifying social engineering as the leading threat. The combination of a more dispersed workforce and the relative ease with which malicious actors can conduct phishing campaigns results in the exposure of user credentials. Thirty-one percent of companies had at least one user fall victim to a phishing attack in 2022. In addition, the report identifies a growing emphasis on user privacy, with privacy controls gaining relevance alongside security. Complying with regulations such as Europe's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is challenging when enforcing compliance across a distributed workforce with access to organizational resources from anywhere, on any device, and at any time. This article continues to discuss key findings from Jamf's latest Annual Trends Report.
