This article proposes an assessment of the cybersecurity scenario in relation to its paradigms, defi ning items
of threats and attacks that have been emerging through the intensifi cation of cybercrime. With rampant cyberattacks
expanding on a global stage, companies need to equip themselves with tools and processes to contain
security-related risks and incidents in order to protect all of their physical and IT assets. To this end, organizations
must provide a plan to address security issues through the most varied actions to contain and mitigate
these threats. We came through this article to also present basic concepts of cybersecurity, its main dangers and
threats and talk about two of the biggest attacks in the world today: Ransomware and Phishing. Finally, we will
show how some emerging disruptive technologies such as Artifi cial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning
(ML) sometimes present themselves as facilitators in mitigation, treatment, and protection through the use of
intelligent algorithms and automation.
