Dave DeWalt, former CEO of McAfee and FireEye, identifies the the next generation of cybersecurity threats in the latest edition of the ISMG Security Report.
DeWalt, now managing director of AllegisCyber and the founder of NightDragon Security, says his companies will be watching new areas, including risks around the exploitation of social media, such as what was seen in the last U.S. presidential election, as well as the leveraging of false identities and false content. He is also concerned about security issues related to the industrial internet of things and the cloud.
