ISF Predicts Collision of Digital and Physical Worlds in 2022

New research published today by the Information Security Forum (ISF) predicts nine potential threats that could make 2022 a turbulent year for cybersecurity and business. The direful overarching theme of the "Threat Horizon 2022" report is that the collision of the digital and physical worlds in 2022 will spell disaster for humanity. The ISF states: "The digital and physical worlds are on an irreversible collision course. By 2022, organizations will be plunged into crisis as ruthless attackers exploit weaknesses in immature technologies and take advantage of an unprepared workforce. At the same time, natural forces will ravage infrastructure." Menaces detailed in the report include a digital cold war that engulfs businesses followed by a crisis of trust that will undermine digital companies.
