IT environment is becoming more complex, cybercriminals are getting better at identifying and targeting the intrinsic weaknesses. In 2020 criminals have taken advantage of the disruption caused by the pandemic. While organizations were vulnerable and distracted, hackers developed new ransomware samples and advanced existing tools to attack critical infrastructure including vital research labs and health care organizations. In this regard analysis of emerging vulnerability, attack trends can be helpful in planning proper counter measures to ensure security. There are various surveys and reports available which provide statistical information on security trend and issues and also studies are available which provides information about defence mechanism and tools to protect an organization .Better understanding of Current information and security trends and issues can be gained by doing comparative and aggregate analysis of these reports. In order to have a holistic picture of current state of information security landscape, In this paper data from NVD, and seven other sources which conducted survey in last two years has been analysed .Results are obtained by analysing recent survey reports to present a comprehensive view of current information security landscape.
