It also highlights declining ransomware encryption rates, new exploit techniques like Interrupt Injection, and a list of high-severity CVEs requiring urgent patching.

A lot of security problems still begin with someone doing a completely normal thing. Cloning a repo. Answering a call. Leaving a box exposed. Trusting the default.
