Updated: 2024 Unit 42 Incident Response Report

Data theft tactics

  • In 93% of incidents Unit 42 responded to, threat actors took data indiscriminately rather than searching for specific data.

Plus updated spotlights on attackers, artificial intelligence, predictions (and how we’re doing against them), and more.
