The Ransomware Report H2 2025: Why the drop in victims isn’t a win

Fewer ransomware victims in late 2025 may look like progress, but the underlying threat remains at its highest sustained level. This webinar breaks down why a short term drop in reported victims does not signal real improvement and how year over year totals continue to rise. Searchlight’s security team examines what this trend means for defenders and why misreading the data can lead to poor prioritization and budgeting decisions.

The session reviews the most active ransomware groups from the second half of 2025, highlights new and emerging actors, and explains how attack strategies are evolving. Attendees will also see how vulnerability intelligence and breached file data can be used to anticipate attacks and reduce exposure. The discussion is designed to help security teams better understand the current ransomware landscape and take more informed steps to minimize their attack surface.
