State of Cybersecurity Report 2019

The third annual edition of the “State of Cybersecurity Report” from Wipro builds on providing a unique perspective of the building blocks that define the global cybersecurity arena. While the report covers a wide spectrum of topics, the long and short of the ensuing cyber spectacle is the real battle that unfolds daily between two broad actors: the attacker and the defender. To understand what played out during the past year and what is possibly in store in the coming future, one needs to understand their changing stratagems. The strategies that are employed by actors on either side of the cyber divide (attackers and defenders) are constantly evolving but they can be discerned by drawing out recurring patterns that can be observed through the year. The summary below draws insights from different parts of the report to bring together stratagems from either side of the divide.
