About this talk

Hridyesh, Security Consultant at SecureLayer7, walked teams through the threat data and defensive shifts that defined the 2020 to 2021 transition. This is the recording.

India alone saw a 37% rise in cyberattacks through the first quarter of 2020. Ransomware, phishing, and spyware moved up the stack faster than most security programs could absorb, and 2021 didn't slow down.

The session covers the cloud security improvements the year demanded, where AI and security process automation actually pay back, the rising weight of data privacy and legal frameworks, and the cybersecurity awareness gap that still drives most incidents.
