The alarming rise in cyberattacks shows the urgent need for robust cybersecurity measures. Globally, the frequency of cyberattacks is on the rise, impacting individuals, enterprises, and governments, leading to substantial financial losses. Cybercriminals target endpoints, networks, and data, with motives ranging from political rivalry and financial gain to damaging reputation and furthering radical religious group interests. Prominent ransomware such as WannaCry, Petya, NotPetya, and BadRabbit have significantly affected large-scale enterprises and government organizations. The CISCO cybersecurity threat trends report for 2021 reveals alarming statistics, including a high percentage of organizations facing phishing attempts, malicious browser ads, crypto mining, and ransomware-related activities. The escalating sophistication of cyber threats, particularly ransomware, is compelling organizations globally to prioritize cybersecurity solutions and services for safeguarding critical IT infrastructure and sensitive data. According to Microsoft, the US was the primary target of 46% of cyberattacks in 2020, emphasizing the urgent need for robust cybersecurity measures worldwide. A report from MarketsAndMarkets projected that the global Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity Market size, which was valued at USD 22.4 billion in 2023, is expected to grow at a CAGR of 21.9% from 2023 to 2028.
