Top 10 Things Manufacturers Need to Know About Ransomware

Manufacturing is the number one target for ransomware, and when an attack hits, the assembly line stops. In this whitepaper from our cyber resilience partner Halcyon, you'll get the data, case studies, and practical guidance every manufacturing leader needs to understand the threat and act on it.

Inside the whitepaper, you'll learn:

• Why manufacturing accounted for one-fifth of all ransomware activity in 2025, with 1,298 attacks recorded
• How 73 percent of OT assets in manufacturing operate without fundamental security controls
• Why 51 percent of manufacturers paid the ransom, yet less than half recovered their data, and 80 percent were attacked again within 12 months
• How IT/OT convergence, supply chain dependencies, and legacy systems compound the risk
• A three-part defence framework to ensure business continuity, deny attackers leverage, and prevent decisions under duress

If you're responsible for keeping production running, protecting IP, or managing cyber risk in a manufacturing environment, this whitepaper is for you. Download the whitepaper now.
