Looking at our 2024 mid-year ransomware trends insights. We look in detail at sector-by-sector analysis. It has provided ample speculation on attackers’ strategies. 🎯 The #manufacturing sector has been the most highly targeted sector in 2024 both in the UK and globally, followed by finance, and for the first time healthcare. 🎯 Small UK-based manufacturing companies (50-200 employees) are disproportionately targeted—approximately 10% more than the general distribution. 🎯The rising targeting of the UK #healthcare sector over the past three quarters is most concerning in terms of direct human impact. Previously less targeted than the US, the UK healthcare sector accounted for ~9% of attacks in Q2. 🎯The UK #financial sector is the second most targeted in 2024. As attackers increasingly skip encryption in favour of sensitive data exfiltration to extort financial sector victims, a deeper understanding of advanced techniques (e.g., DNS tunnelling) and mitigations becomes increasingly valuable. We contextualise global ransomware trends for UK-centric organisations, tracking the latest threat actor activity via #dataleak sites and incorporating complementary #threatintelligence and reporting.
