Scott Gainey, vice president of marketing, industry and programs at Palo Alto Networks, said the threat vectors may not have changed drastically in 2014, but the year did see a significant increase in the sheer volume of malware. Palo Alto Networks utilizes a sandboxtype technology that is able to track malicious content, and comparing pre 2014 figures to the last few months is startling. “Today we’re seeing about 31,000 new forms of malware each day, about a 50 percent increase from just 3 months ago,” Gainey explained. “Our average daily trend is growing pretty extensively.”In addition, he notes the volume of unknown forms of malware—those with no signature attached—is also on the rise.
