A Timeline of Cybersecurity Failures: How Rapid Tech Changes and Expertise Gaps Broke the Industry

Year: 2006

AWS Cloud Revolution:

AWS launches S3 and EC2, triggering the shift from on-prem datacenters to the cloud. This disrupts security paradigms, moving focus from hardware-based solutions to API-driven architecture. Traditional network and security engineers lack the software engineering background to integrate and secure APIs.

Year: 2013

Adapting Security Strategies

Software development transitions from virtual machines to container-based applications. With CTOs pushing organizations to the cloud, containers emphasize lightweight OS's, challenging system admins to secure these new environments. Security specialists must adapt to protect applications with new technology.

Year: 2015

Security Gaps Exposed:

CTOs, scrambling to migrate to cloud and containers, face orchestration and management challenges. Enter Kubernetes: a Google-built solution for deploying, maintaining, and scaling applications. Security engineers overlook that Kubernetes lacks encryption of secrets at rest, granular firewall rules, audit logging, and other basic security features by default.

Year: 2017

Data Leaks Rampant:

With over 23 high-profile breaches, tech executives realize the pitfalls of cloud migration without proper planning and hardening. Public buckets leak sensitive information, including US voter data, Dow Jones user info, mortgage details, and social security numbers. Is security working?

Year: 2018

Tesla Crypto Hack:

Tesla's public Kubernetes API exposes an unauthenticated dashboard, allowing attackers to mine cryptocurrency on Tesla's dime. Check Point reports a threat actor group using Jenkins servers to mine $3 million in crypto. If multi-million-dollar security programs fail, how can SMBs defend themselves?

Year: 2020

Remote Work Crisis:

A global pandemic forces remote work, crippling businesses reliant on on-prem services. IT systems fail to meet the needs of a distributed workforce. As organizations flock to Zoom, they discover a breach exposing 500k user credentials using 1990s techniques. Notice the 14-year trend?

Year: 2023

Record High Breaches

Breaches hit an all-time high, highlighting the widening skills gap in security. The adoption of LLMs and AI tools introduces unknown risks. This, combined with gaps created by cloud, containers, orchestration systems, and remote work, increases spending on security products that fail to deliver on promises.

Year: 2024

Pragmatic Security Needed:

The global cybersecurity market is expected to reach $290bn by 2027 (annual growth rate of 13%). Companies continue to procure security tools without implementing basic configurations. The common theme: budgets rise, ROI falls, and breaches persist.


Security programs must be pragmatic, forward-thinking, and embrace lifelong learning to keep pace with technological change. History proves our point. If you’ve read this far, claim a free risk assessment of your publicly facing assets.
