Top Cybersecurity Threats in 2025 for Private Industry

In our recent webinar, Cybersecurity Threats for Private Industry in 2025, Colin Glover, a cybersecurity coordinator at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), took the stage to deliver a dynamic and insightful presentation. His message? Cyber defense and resilience are more important than ever, and many organizations are at extremely high risk due to the lack of fundamental cybersecurity best practices.

Glover revealed that many cyberattacks succeed due to basic vulnerabilities. After sharing the story of the exploitation of an organization via a critical device that was using a default password of “1111,” he states, “What we find time and again is that a lot of the hacks that we see just aren’t very difficult, and that’s what’s so concerning… Most of them had changed their default password. You know, they had done a good job on that to a certain extent. They missed one. And that’s one of the hardest parts is, you know, we get eighty, ninety percent there. We think we’re good. We just missed one, and we allow an easy route into our network.”
