The year 2024 experienced an extremely difficult economic and cyber context, particularly Canadian companies, and experts in the field of cybersecurity predict an increase in cyberattacks in 2025.
It’s essential for companies to protect the data of all their clients because with the emergence of artificial intelligence and technological advancements, it has become very easy for hackers to gain access to your data and use it for malicious purposes.
That is why we have presented in this blog article the 4 trends to protect your business against cyber threats in 2025.

1- Zero trust :
The Zero Trust model is an approach based on verifying the identity of each user and the device accessing a network. It is an essential strategy in cybersecurity.
In a 100% digitalized environment and with the increase in hybrid and remote work modalities, it is very important to adopt a Zero Trust strategy to minimize threats.
2- IoT Threats :
In 2025, attacks often target IoT devices because they are considered a preferred target by hackers. Attacks targeting these devices are expected to multiply, with specific malware such as IoT botnets or ransomware directly threatening supply chains and sensitive data.
To reduce risks, companies will need to integrate security practices from the design phase of devices and implement strong authentication protocols to reduce vulnerabilities.
3. Artificial intelligence :
Artificial intelligence is so important in gaining productivity and not wasting much time for both parties, the defenders and the attackers, as artificial intelligence solutions allow for the identification of threats. On the other hand, attackers use AI to automate the attack process or improve their phishing campaigns.
So, AI presents both an opportunity and a threat to companies in any industry. And to address this, it is to follow a well-structured cybersecurity strategy.
4. The human factor :
The human factor is the first line of defense in the field of cybersecurity, and to reduce the attack surface, it’s important to schedule a cybersecurity training for all employees, conducted by experts in the field.
Thanks to this approach, the company will limit potential risks.
Also, establishing a culture of cybersecurity within the organization will transform each employee to a fighter against cyber threats.
The year of 2024 experienced an extremely difficult economic and cyber context, and experts predict an increase in cyberattacks in 2025.
The optimal solution in this case is to outsource the cybersecurity function to a team of experts.
SourceLogique has helped many Canadian and Moroccan companies by:
The implementation of real-time monitoring systems to detect security incidents and respond quickly to threats.
Conducting security audits and vulnerability assessments to evaluate risks and propose appropriate solutions.
The organization of training programs for staff to strengthen the culture of cybersecurity within the company.
Regulatory compliance through adherence to data security standards and regulations, such as the GDPR.
Incident management through the development of incident response plans to minimize the impact of cyberattacks and ensure a quick recovery of activities.
