2014 Predictions from Symantec
Kevin Haley, Symantec
Whispers.
The secret to predicting the future is to listen for the whisper.
By the time you’ve heard things in a loud, clear voice they have already come true. I’ve been listening to the whispers in 2013 and have a pretty good idea for what we’ll be hearing loud and clear in 2014. Below are my predictions of the top things we’ll hear and what they will mean for us in 2014.
- People will finally begin taking active steps to keep their information private.
- Scammers, data collectors and cybercriminals will not ignore any social network, no matter how “niche” or obscure.
- The “Internet of Things” becomes the “Internet of Vulnerabilities.”
- Mobile apps will prove that you can like yourself too much.
“Wait a minute…The Internet knows more about me than my own mother?”
