In twenty-twenty-four, a war unseen
Rages in the digital domain,
Where threats lurk, data held for ransom,
And cyber fortresses must remain.
Ransomware’s grip tightens its vicious hold,
Encrypting files, demanding payment bold.
Businesses tremble, operations disrupted,
Losses mount, reputations corrupted.
Phishing lures cast far and wide,
Baiting the unwary with cunning lies.
One click, one mistake, and havoc unleashed,
Identities stolen, bank accounts breached.
Nation-states flex their cyber might,
Espionage and sabotage in plain sight.
Critical infrastructure under constant siege,
Vulnerabilities exploited, no one is liege.
But amidst the chaos, hope still shines,
As defenders rally on the digital lines.
AI and machine learning join the fray,
Detecting threats, adapting each day.
Zero Trust emerges as the new paradigm,
Verifying every access, leaving no room for whim.
Multi-factor authentication, the gatekeeper’s key,
Securing identities, protecting you and me.
Resilience is the watchword, the mantra to heed,
Backup plans and redundancies, a cyber creed.
For when the inevitable breach occurs,
Swift recovery, the business endures.
So heed the call, embrace the fight,
Defend your data with all your might.
In twenty-twenty-four, the battle rages on,
But with vigilance and resolve, the victory will be won.
