19. The same advanced technology used for
cybersecurity — including machine learning
and AI tools — is employed by today’s
cybercriminals too. And, as the big business
of cybercrime continues to grow, threat
actors have begun collaborating in a
ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) model to
infiltrate organizations.The RaaS model allows
the developers of a ransomware variant to
recruit affiliates that exclusively use their
ransomware in targeted attacks on
organizations. Any ransom payments extorted
from the victims are then divided between the
ransomware developers and the affiliate who
conducted the attack.

Successful approaches to cybersecurity will
include multi-prong defenses. It will involve
service providers and third-party expertise
even for organizations large enough to
employ comprehensive cybersecurity
technology and expert staff in-house. What
every organization needs to battle
cybercrime today, as well as tomorrow, is
security operations.
