Cybercriminals and hacktivists dramatically escalated attacks on industrial control systems in 2025, with vulnerability disclosures jumping from 1,690 to 2,451 across 152 vendors, according to Cyble's latest threat report. Siemens topped the list with 1,175 reported vulnerabilities, though Schneider Electric faced more severe threats with 70% classified as high or critical. Manufacturing and healthcare bore the brunt of ransomware attacks, seeing 600 and 477 entities compromised respectively. Hacktivist groups like Z-Pentest increasingly targeted human-machine interfaces and SCADA systems, while geopolitical tensions fueled cyber operations. The Israel-Iran conflict alone sparked activity from 74 hacktivist groups, generating 1.5 million intrusion attempts tied to India-Pakistan tensions. Cyble warns that exposed industrial systems will face even more aggressive targeting in 2026. **Source:** [Infosecurity Magazine](https://www.infosecurity-magazine.com/news/cyber-threat-actors-ramp-up-ics/)
