Whether you are purchasing roller skates or concert tickets, when you enter your information on the checkout page, if the shopping cart software is faulty, information is sent in clear text, allowing attackers to intercept in real time. Even just patching does not fix the problem, if the device is infected.ĭigital skimming will increase in frequency and sophistication. Cybercriminals are going after websites that process payments and compromising the checkout page directly.

Large scale compromises of routers and IoT devices are going to take place, and they are a lot harder to patch than computers.

This is only the beginning of what we will likely see in the new year, with more and more hardware devices being compromised to serve up everything from cryptominers to Trojans. In the second half of 2018, we saw several thousand MikroTik routers hacked to serve up coin miners. IoT botnets will come to a device near you.

In 2019, we will see a more concerted effort to replace passwords altogether. There are many solutions out there-asymmetric cryptography, biometrics, blockchain, hardware solutions, etc.-but so far, the cybersecurity industry has not been able to settle on a standard to fix the problem. The ineffective username/password conundrum has plagued consumers and businesses for years. New, high-profile breaches will push the security industry to finally solve the username/password problem. We also can pretty much assure you that data breaches will keep happening-just as the sun rises and sets.Īnd while all hope is for a malware-free 2019, the reality will likely look a little more like this: For example, we guarantee there’ll be some kind of development that we had zero indication would occur. When it comes to security, though, we can only know so much.

Okay, maybe we don’t have a crystal ball, but we do have years and years of experience in observing trends and sensing shifts in patterns. Every year, we at Malwarebytes Labs like to stare into our crystal ball and foretell the future of malware.
