Welcome to SOCRadar’s 2025 APAC Threat Landscape Report’s CISO Brief!
The APAC region faces a rapidly evolving cyber threat environment, with organizations across finance, information services, and government increasingly in the crosshairs of cybercriminals. SOCRadar’s APAC Threat Landscape Report’s CISO Brief highlights the most pressing threats, attack trends, and underground activities shaping the region—equipping CISOs with the intelligence needed to bolster defenses and protect critical assets.
Key Insights from APAC’s Cyber Threat Landscape for CISOs:
-
Dark Web Exposure is Widespread: India leads with 8.85% of dark web activity in the region, followed by Indonesia (6.87%) and China (4.57%), showing that both emerging and advanced economies remain prime targets.
-
Data Theft Dominates Threat Activity: Data and database-related threats account for 71.47% of cases, with credentials and financial records fueling underground markets.
-
Ransomware Fragmentation: RansomHub (7.5%), Qilin (6.1%), and KillSec (5.2%) are active, but 81.2% of activity stems from smaller groups, signaling a fragmented and unpredictable ransomware landscape.
-
Phishing Attacks are Sophisticated: Over 71% of phishing pages use HTTPS, making them harder to detect. Attackers also leverage generic templates and trusted brand names to bypass defenses.
