We are excited to share Central InfoSec's Cyber Security Predictions for 2023 January edition.

Increased adoption of artificial intelligence and machine learning in cybersecurity
As the use of AI and ML in cyber defense continues to grow, we can expect to see more sophisticated and automated threat detection and response systems in the next year.


Rise of cloud-based security
With more and more companies moving to the cloud, we can expect to see an increase in cloud-based security solutions, such as cloud access security brokers (CASBs), to protect sensitive data in the cloud.


Greater emphasis on identity and access management (IAM)
As cyberattacks continue to evolve, organizations will place a greater emphasis on managing and securing access to their networks and systems.


More frequent and severe ransomware attacks
Ransomware attacks have been on the rise in recent years, and we can expect to see even more of them in 2023, with attackers targeting both individuals and organizations.


More attacks on Internet of Things (IoT) devices
As the number of connected devices continues to grow, we can expect to see more attacks on these devices, which can be used to gain access to sensitive information or launch larger attacks.


Increased focus on supply chain security
As cyber threats continue to evolve, organizations will place a greater emphasis on securing their supply chain to protect against attacks that originate from third-party vendors.


Greater use of deception technology
Deception technology, which is used to create decoy systems and networks to lure attackers away from valuable assets, is becoming increasingly popular as a way to detect and respond to cyber threats.


More emphasis on proactive threat hunting
Rather than waiting for attacks to happen, organizations will increasingly adopt proactive threat hunting to identify and mitigate potential threats before they can cause damage.


Greater use of automation in incident response
As the number of cyber threats continues to grow, organizations will turn to automation to help them quickly and effectively respond to incidents.


Greater collaboration among governments, businesses, and security researchers
As cyber threats continue to evolve and become more sophisticated, we can expect to see greater collaboration among governments, businesses, and security researchers in order to better protect against and respond to these threats.


Final Thoughts
Cybersecurity will be one of the hot topics in 2023 as the threat landscape continues to evolve and grow. Organizations will need to stay vigilant and adapt their cybersecurity strategies to keep pace with these changes. This includes adopting new technologies such as AI, ML, IAM and deception technology to better detect and respond to cyber threats. Additionally, an increased focus on supply chain security, proactive threat hunting, incident response automation and collaboration across industries will play a vital role in protecting against cyber attacks.
