Throughout 2022, the cyber threat landscape reflected real world events and geopolitical tensions, with much of the year impacted by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Log4Shell ushered in a chaotic start to 2022 and highlighted the positive impact of industry collaboration, as well as the criticality of patching and understanding the footprint of widely used software in environments.

Our annual cybersecurity report sheds light on the major security concerns that surfaced and prevailed in 2022. We also discuss how cybercriminals, specifically ransomware actors, are taking their cue from legitimate organizations when it comes to diversifying their portfolios and rebranding their image, and the top vulnerabilities that malicious actors have abused last year.

In March 2023, Darktrace commissioned a global survey with Censuswide, to 6,711 employees across the UK, US, France, Germany, Australia, and the Netherlands to gather third-party insights into human behavior around email, to better understand how employees globally react to potential security threats, their understanding of email security and the modern technologies that are being used to transform the threats against them.

In the 2023 Unit 42 Ransomware Threat Report explores recent incident response cases, as well as our threat intelligence analysts’ assessment of the larger threat landscape. It also offers predictions for how we believe threat actors will use ransomware and extortion tactics going forward. As of late 2022, threat actors engaged in data theft in about 70% of cases on average, Compare this to mid-2021, and we saw data theft in only about 40$ of cases on average. Threat actors often threaten to leak stolen data on dark web leak sites, which are increasingly a key component of their efforts to extort organizations.

This report represents Deep Instinct’s current view of the threat landscape and trends seen between the period January – June 2021 and provides concrete data to verify the credibility of these developments. The information was sourced from our repositories which are routinely analyzed as we continuously protect our customers from unending and varied attacks.

This report represents Deep Instinct’s current view of the threat landscape and trends seen between the period January - September 2022 and where possible provides concrete data to verify the credibility of these developments. The information was sourced from our repositories which are routinely analyzed as we protect our customers from incessant and ever evolving attacks on an ongoing basis.

2022 was another year that kept us on our toes. The threat landscape was heavily influenced by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, during which we have seen the whole arsenal of offensive cyber capabilities, deployed by criminals, hacktivists, and nation state groups.We saw the overall number of ransomware incidents dip by around 5% compared to the previous year. But, this slight dip does not mean we collectively declare ‘job done’. As a result, we have witnessed several coordinated operations in 2022 that saw arrests of key members of prolific cyber-criminal operations, as well as the disbanding of long-established groups. Least of all Conti, which was 2021’s most active group.”

The mission of this report is to provide actionable intelligence on targeted attacks, cybercrime-motivated threat actors, and campaigns targeting organizations like yours so that you can make well-informed decisions and take prompt effective actions.

Tenable Research takes that approach to equip our customers and the industry at large with the tools, awareness and intelligence to effectively reduce risk. To further those goals, SRT has complied this 2020 Threat Landscape Retrospective, which offers both a macro look at the trends that shaped the year as well as the detailed compendium of key vulnerabilities. The insights and data provided in these pages are designed to help cyber defenders learn from the past in order to build cybersecurity strategies that protect critical infrastructures, supply chains and data while respecting privacy.

Our goal with this report is to help demystify the ransomware ecosystem by exploring the key players involved, as well as the techniques and tactics utilized by ransomware operations and their affiliates to infiltrate organizations and distribute ransomware payloads. We also provide a list of the most common vulnerabilities likely to be exploited as part as a ransomware attack, to help security practitioners prioritize remediation.

The 2023 SonicWall Cyber Threat Report provides critical insights and actionable intelligence needed to safeguard your organization from new and emerging cyber threats. The bi-annual report includes key threat intelligence, trend analysis and changes in cybercriminal tactics - al in one in-depth resource.

This research paper is a joint effort between Trend Micro and Waratah Analytics, a data-modeling, risk-analysis, and exposure management services provider. It analyzes the modern ransomware ecosystem using data-science approaches and leverages information collected from network-based and host-based telemetry, underground forums, bitcoin and financial transactions, and chat logs - together with a deep analysis of criminal business processes - to find trends, new developments, and choke points in the ransomware ecosystem.

As 2021 progressed through its second quarter and into the third, cyber criminals introduced new - and updated - threats and tactics in campaigns targeting prominent sectors. Ransomware campaigns maintained their prevalence while evolving their business models to extract valuable data and millions in ransoms from enterprises big and small. REvil/Sodinokibi topped our list of ransomware detection in Q2 of 2021.

The first quarter of 2022 in cybersecurity was more about evolution than revolution. The techniques and prevalence of ransomware attacks advanced while Russian cyberattacks continues a slow-building evolution fed by the continuing conflict in Ukraine. Our latest Trellix Threat Report includes our findings from Q1 2022 and other vital research included the evolution of Russian cybercrime, ransomware in the United States, and email security trends. We also share our team’s recent research into vulnerabilities found in building access control systems, and risks unquie to connected healthcare.

Last year, we made several predictions about how the threat landscape would evolve, ranging from attackers spending more effort on pre-attack activities to an increasing number of attack attempts impacting operational technology (OT). Lets look at how some of our predictions fared and how we expect these threats to evolve as we plan for 2023.

This annual report sheds light on the cybersecurity threats facing the financial sector. The report provides cyber ground truth, specifically manifesting an eye-opening perspective on the changing behavior of cybercriminal cartels and the defensive shift of the financial sector. In this year’s report, financial sector security leaders from around the world revealed during a series of interviews the type of attacks they’re currently seeing, what threats they’re most concerned about and how they’re adjusting their security strategy.

Our findings should serve as a wake-up call to both the mid-market segment and the cyber security industry that is currently underserving it. In just the past two years, attacks against mid-sized companies overall have increased by 150%, with attacks against specific sectors ranging from just about doubling to nearly tripling over that two-year period. At the same-time, mid-market companies’ defenses against these growing attacks have not kept pace.
