In 2025, cyber­se­cu­ri­ty faces a dynam­ic yet unsta­ble land­scape despite increased invest­ments and advanced tools. Forbes con­trib­u­tor Chuck Brooks out­lines how emerg­ing technologies—from quan­tum com­put­ing to arti­fi­cial intelligence—are inten­si­fy­ing both defense and offense in the dig­i­tal realm. Sophis­ti­cat­ed threats such as ran­somware, DDoS attacks, and AI-dri­ven exploits com­pel orga­ni­za­tions to rethink their secu­ri­ty strate­gies. Addi­tion­al con­cerns include vul­ner­a­bil­i­ties in health­care sys­tems and even space assets. The arti­cle empha­sizes that inno­v­a­tive tech­nol­o­gy alone isn’t enough; flex­i­ble and proac­tive secu­ri­ty mea­sures are essen­tial in a rapid­ly evolv­ing cyber envi­ron­ment. Source: Forbes
