Please join McAfee leading researchers from McAfee Labs and Office of the CTO as they share threat landscape predictions for 2018.

In this webcast, Raj Samani, Lynda Grindstaff, and Vincent Weafer offer their views on a wide range of threats, including machine learning, ransomware, serverless apps, and privacy issues.

They will discuss five key trends to watch in 2018
  • McAfee Labs predicts an adversarial machine learning “arms race” between attackers and defenders
  • Ransomware will evolve from traditional PC extortion to IoT, high net-worth users, and corporate disruption
  • Serverless apps will create attack opportunities targeting privileges, app dependencies, and data transfers
