2025 CYBER THREATS
AI, RANSOMWARE & EXPANDING ATTACK SURFACE
Thursday, May 8 | 6:30 PM - 9:30 PM | Jio Convention Centre, Mumbai
Event Overview
The cybersecurity landscape in 2025 will be shaped by AI-driven attacks, automation and expanding digital footprints, forcing security teams to rethink their defense strategies. Rapid7 will unveil key cyber threat predictions for 2025, highlighting the latest attack vectors and adversary tactics that will challenge security teams in the coming year.
As the ransomware threat landscape continues to evolve, financially motivated cybercriminals are pivoting toward double and even triple extortion, ransomware-as-a-service and hybrid extortion models that target both on-prem and cloud environments. Additionally, organizations face a rising wave of identity fraud and misinformation campaigns, enabled by deepfake technology and AI-generated content, which pose new security and reputational risks.
Most organisations are also experiencing rapid growth in their technology ecosystem, leading to the significant expansion of their attack surface. Compounded by the relentless disclosure of new vulnerabilities and their associated exploits, organisations need new strategies to cope with managing the threat exposures against their environments.
In response, businesses must integrate proactive threat detection, real-time AI-powered defenses and automated risk management strategies to stay ahead of emerging cyber threats.
This event will provide actionable insights, strategic guidance and updates related to Rapid7’s portfolio offerings to help security leaders prepare for the next wave of cyber threats, anticipate attacker behaviors and implement resilient security frameworks to safeguard their organizations in an increasingly volatile digital landscape.
Hear from our panel of experts, including Rapid7’s valued customers, as they explore critical cybersecurity use cases.
In this exclusive event, explore:
- What is the current threat landscape in India and abroad regarding actors, tactics, techniques, procedures and trends?
- How is ransomware continuing to evolve through double extortion, RaaS, and hybrid extortion tactics targeting cloud and on-premises infrastructures?
- How can organizations effectively manage their growing attack surface as attackers exploit vectors including misconfigured cloud services, insecure APIs and other technologies?
- What proactive defense strategies can organizations implement to detect and respond to threats?
- How can proactive continuous threat exposure management strategies as well as AI-driven threat detection and exposure management counter evolving threats?
