| Titre | U.S. Ransomware Attacks Surge to Start 2025 |
| Texte | 
Overview
According to an analysis of Cyble threat intelligence data, U.S. ransomware attacks have surged to the start of 2025, up nearly 150% from the first five weeks of 2024.
Ransomware attacks on U.S. targets have been climbing since a few organizations paid ransoms to attackers in highly publicized cases last year, making the country a more attractive target for ransomware groups.
That\'s likely the main reason for the increase. Regardless of the timeframe or changes in the most active ransomware groups, U.S. ransomware attacks have increased substantially in the last year and have been climbing steadily since the fall.
We\'ll examine the changing ransomware landscape in the U.S. and other frequently attacked countries and consider what changes may be in store as we approach 2025.
The Effect of Ransomware Payments
In the first five weeks of 2024, Cyble documented 152 ransomware attacks on U.S. targets, in line with late 2023 trends.
In the first five weeks of 2025, that number soared to 378 attacks on U.S. targets, a 149% year-over-year increase. Compared to the end of 2024, attacks are up a still significant 29% so far in 2025, up from 282 in the last five weeks of the year.
Perhaps owing to geographical proximity, Canada has also seen a significant increase in ransomware attacks, up from 14 in the year-ago period to 28 at the end of 2024, and nearly doubling again to 46 to start 2025.
Even as North American ransomware attacks have soared, the next-most attacked regions have stayed relatively stable. France, for example, had 18 attacks to start in 2024 and has seen 19 thus far in 2025 (chart below).
