Recent research from Digital.ai reveals a significant increase in attacks on client-side applications, spurred by the growing use of AI by cyber criminals. Over 80% of applications are under constant threat, marking a nearly 20% rise compared to last year. Industries such as telecoms and financial services are the most affected, with 91% and 88% of organizations targeted, respectively. The report highlights a shift in attacker focus towards not just flagship apps, but also secondary apps and numerous plugins. Furthermore, Android remains more vulnerable due to its open architecture, with significant rates of instrumentation and integrity attacks.
"For enterprises, apps represent a gainful bridge to their consumers and employees, but for threat actors, these apps represent lucrative targets."
"Today, we see more attackers expanding their focus to target not just flagship apps but secondary apps, plugins, add-ons and more."
