Dragos's 8th Annual OT Cybersecurity Year in Review Is Now Available
Summary: Dragos released its 8th Annual OT Cybersecurity Year in Review, reporting that it tracks 23 threat groups targeting industrial organizations, nine of which were active in the period, with two new groups detailed. The report states Dragos documented 1,693 ransomware attacks on industrial organizations in 2024, an 87 percent increase over the previous year, and that 75 percent of the ransomware incidents Dragos responded to led to a partial OT shutdown while 25 percent led to a full shutdown.
Why it matters: Three in four ransomware incidents Dragos worked in 2024 reached the operational technology layer and partially shut it down, and one in four shut it down entirely - the IT containment playbook does not stop there.
