Ransomware attacks on critical infrastructure exploded in 2025, with 4,701 incidents recorded through September—a 34% jump from 2024. Half of these attacks hit vital sectors like manufacturing, healthcare, energy, and finance. The U.S. bore the brunt with 21% of global incidents. Manufacturing took the biggest hit, seeing attacks surge 61% as criminals targeted companies like Jaguar Land Rover and Bridgestone. Just five ransomware groups were responsible for 25% of all incidents, showing how organized these criminal operations have become. Experts warn ransomware has evolved from a business nuisance into a national security threat, capable of paralyzing supply chains and undermining public trust in critical services. **Source:** [Industrial Cyber](https://industrialcyber.co/reports/half-of-2025-ransomware-attacks-hit-critical-sectors-as-manufacturing-healthcare-and-energy-top-global-targets/)
