Ransomware attacks have reached their highest in February 2025, with 980 attacks occurring in just 28 days.
The Cl0p ransomware group has been highly active in Q1 of 2025 and is responsible for 385 attacks in the first few weeks.
The surge in ransomware attacks is attributed to various factors, including the rise of ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS), zero-day vulnerabilities, and unpatched systems.
To mitigate the threat of ransomware, organizations are advised to deploy multi-layered cybersecurity strategies, regular data backups, multi-factor authentication, and cybersecurity training for employees.
