Non-linear change, significant uncertainty, and political tensions are challenges that many organisations will face in 2024. But how do we prepare for expected – and unexpected – events, many of which are complex or even interconnected?
In this Annual Malicious Risk Report, our team of experts provide a strategic overview of the global malicious risk environment. Exploring the trends, identifying relevant questions, and drawing pragmatic conclusions for senior leaders across three themes:
Geopolitical Implications of Energy Transition: Rare-earth competition, resource nationalism and geoeconomics.
Race for Technological Superiority: International tech rivalry, supply chain vulnerabilities and malicious cyber.
Political Polarisation: Strikes, riots and civil commotion (SRCC), disinformation and the hardening of geopolitical blocs.
The report is a must read for any organisation looking to understand and manage their malicious risks.
The Annual Malicious Risk Report is produced by Blackthorn ’s team of leading malicious risk experts specialising in strategic security issues such as terrorism and political violence, operating in complex environments, malicious cyber, and civil unrest. The insights offered will help organisations of all sizes plan for expected and unexpected malicious activity, by providing intelligence about the risks most likely to have an impact on business.
