Per the CSO article, head of G DATA SecurityLabs Ralf Benzmüller theorized that, "Improved
security measures by banks are making it more and more difficult for online bank robbers to get
money from bank customers.”
Because banking malware is less likely to succeed in the face of bulked-up security, hackers
are turning to new tactics, like adware, which could have a better chance of penetrating cyber
defenses.
With so many new types of malware, it's unlikely that perimeter defenses can stop them all.
Organizations that adopt a layered approach to security, with a new emphasis on automated
threat detection and removal, will be better positioned to ward off the myriad threats they face.
