Ransomware attacks on Linux
In the first half of 2022, the Japanese IT security specialist blocked 63 billion threats worldwide. This is an increase of 52 percent compared to the same period last year. The public sector, manufacturing and healthcare were the most common targets for malware attacks.
Detection of ransomware-as-a-service attacks jumped in the first half of 2022, especially from large players: LockBit saw a 500 percent year-over-year increase, and detections from Conti nearly doubled in six months. This trend is likely to continue. A 75 percent increase in ransomware attacks on Linux and embedded systems is particularly striking.
