Cyber security research company Trellix says that online misinformation is likely to remain high in 2023 as a result of hacktivism.

Derived from combining the words hack and activism, hacktivism is the act of hacking, or breaking into a computer system, for politically or socially motivated purposes.

In its 2023 forecast report, the company says that this will be mostly due to geo-political influences and conflict. A cyber security expert Carlo Bolzonello explains, “We’ve seen an uptick in now- especially with this conflict with Ukraine and Russia- and what we’re seeing is two narratives- one is trying to justify one side. Behind that is not predominantly people- it’s what we call bot farms that are generating data, to change perceptions.
