crowdstrike-2024-global-threat-report-executive-summary

The CrowdStrike 2024 Global Threat Report provides an overview of 2023 threat activity: adversaries accelerated operations (rapid breakout and increased hands-on-keyboard intrusions), shifted toward identity-based and malware-free techniques, and substantially increased cloud-conscious attacks and data-theft extortion (big game hunting). The report highlights activity from nation-state and eCrime groups (credential phishing, supply-chain exploitation, cloud persistence, and destructive wipers in conflict-related operations) and concludes with operational recommendations around identity protection, CNAPP adoption, cross-domain visibility, modern SIEM, and security culture.
