Supply chain attacks stemming from social engineering or zero day vulnerabilities. The heightened risk comes from the trojan horse (compromised business partner) having access to your infrastructure. The network edge today is more like a club with a velvet rope guarded by a bouncer than the archaic stylized brick walls in network diagrams. Most business have network connections to key business partners, but there is no ability to control business partner's security.

Ransomware at the top but not to overlook how phishing remains pervasive, with sophisticated social engineering tactics to trick users into disclosing sensitive information. With the increasing adoption of cloud services, misconfigured cloud security settings and inadequate access controls are also a top concern.

Business Email Compromise (BEC) is probably the biggest vector, RAT (remote access/administration trojan/toolset/threat) is probably the biggest threat (often linked to ransomware and/or exhilaration of data)
