VMware’s seventh annual Global Incident Response Threat Report analyzes how attackers are manipulating reality to reshape the modern threat landscape. The report found a drastic rise in destructive attacks, where adversaries deploy advanced techniques to deliver more targeted, sophisticated attacks that distort digital reality. Examples include business communications compromise (BCC) or the manipulation of time. However, defenders are struggling to counter these complex attacks and gain visibility into new environments, such as the cloud, containers and business communication applications. This is leading to an embrace of active defense techniques as incident responders deal with the extreme stress of their jobs.

Imagine you run a moving and storage business. Your moving business booms every spring and summer. How can you strike the right balance with IT—allocate resources to seasonal applications—and still reduce costs while supporting these applications? Convenient and scalable, but subject to performance issues, service disruptions, and unknown security practices. On-premises virtualization lets you allocate resources to applications as needed, so you can run multiple applications on a single server. Evolving to a hybrid cloud model gives you the flexibility to expand into the cloud for more capacity and business continuity.
