13 Sep Ransomware Will Strike Every 2 Seconds By 2031
Gangs, strains, and statistics CISOs and cybersecurity teams should know
Sausalito, Calif. – Jun. 28, 2023
Cybersecurity Ventures predicts that by 2031, ransomware will cost victims $265 billion annually, and it will attack a business, consumer, or device every 2 seconds.
Chief information security officers and cybersecurity teams are devoting more time than ever protecting against ransomware.
Ransomware gangs are, in almost every case, financially motivated. These cybercriminals will stop at nothing to be paid — whether this means locking up your personal information or grinding the operations of a Fortune 500 company to a halt.
The Who’s Who In Ransomware Report (Q2 2023 edition), published by Cybersecurity Ventures and sponsored by Conceal, provides a window into the organized gangs who are planning and executing the attacks. Knowledge is power in the war against ransomware criminals.

Ransomware Gangs
“Ransomware attacks are coming, and companies of all sizes need to be prepared,” says Gordon Lawson, CEO at Conceal.
“Ransomware has evolved,” adds Lawson, a former U.S. naval officer. “On top of encrypting data that can’t be accessed without a stiff payment, ransomware gangs now routinely threaten to publish sensitive data — sometimes in searchable form.”
As some ransomware gangs form and others close — or rebrand — the ones to watch from A to Z, from AlphV/BlackCat to Zeppelin, are covered in The Who’s Who In Ransomware Report.
