At Huntress, we like to wreck hackers. But to take them down, we first have to understand how they operate. That’s why we created the 2025 Cyber Threat Report—an in-depth exploration of the nasty tactics, trends, and techniques reshaping cybersecurity today.

Here, we highlight key findings from the past year, offering a snapshot of the malicious strategies our analysts uncovered. Whether you’re an IT professional, cybersecurity practitioner, or business owner, these insights can provide actionable guidance to help you stay one step ahead of ever-evolving cyber threats.

Top takeaways from the 2025 Cyber Threat Report

Throughout 2024, Huntress' threat analysts looked at data from thousands of organizations and millions of endpoints, revealing the key trends that show how adaptable and relentless today’s malicious hackers are.

Remote access trojans (RATs) are more popular: Over 75% of remote access incidents utilized RATs such as AsyncRAT and Jupyter. These tools are becoming more sophisticated, making multilayered defenses like endpoint detection and response (EDR) essential.
Remote monitoring and management (RMM) tools are being exploited. Attackers are weaponizing legitimate software like TeamViewer and LogMeIn to facilitate lateral movement and maintain long-term access to systems. For environments that use RMM tools, we highly suggest increasing vigilance, enhancing access controls, and closely monitoring your tools.
Ransomware strategies are evolving: Attacks are shifting from traditional encryption to data theft and extortion. Groups like RansomHub and Akira now incentivize stolen data with big rewards, making these tactics quite lucrative. The future may see ransomware operators leaning even more into extortion (or double extortion) strategies—a trend driven by the efficacy of EDR solutions and mounting pressure from government takedown efforts.
“Living off the land” techniques are on the rise: Threat actors are doubling down on using legitimate tools like Sysinternals Suite and LOLBins to evade detection. Organizations must remove unnecessary software and enforce strict execution policies to mitigate this threat.
Phishing tactics are becoming more advanced: From QR code phishing to brand impersonation, threat actors are deploying clever methods to outsmart traditional email security. Improving security awareness training and implementing layered defenses are more essential than ever to counter these sophisticated techniques.

How these trends took shape in 2024

The findings from our 2025 Cyber Threat Report are grounded in real-world data with a comprehensive view of how malicious hackers operate today. Our threat analysts observed patterns across industries like healthcare, education, government, and manufacturing, and these growing trends stood out:

Infostealers are gaining momentum: Nearly 24% of incidents involved infostealers designed to extract sensitive credentials, financial data, and other private information.
Malicious scripts are surging: Scripts made up 22% of detected attacks, using PowerShell, VBScript, and JavaScript to perform stealthy, efficient attacks.
Ransomware is fragmenting: Despite takedowns of large groups like Hive and LockBit, smaller, flexible affiliates have risen to fill the gap. Unfortunately, this led to more unpredictable, widespread attacks.

\"Industries — Industries targeted by percentage

Why these findings matter

The 2024 cybersecurity landscape exposes a simple yet alarming truth: threat actors aren’t slowing down. Because hackers' tactics and tools are evolving, you must take a proactive approach that prioritizes awareness, preparation, and consistent upgrades to defense strategies.

Understanding the tactics outlined in this report is the first essential step. By educating your teams, using multiple layers of security, and staying informed about emerging risks, you and your organization will be ready to take on any challenges that come your way.

Jai Minton’s journey into cybersecurity is as unique as it is inspiring.

Jai's initial foray into cybersecurity began in high school when he \"borrowed\" internet from a neighbor, uncovering vulnerabilities in wireless networks. This curiosity led him to pursue information security in university, despite initial reluctance. A pivotal moment during his final year placement involved identifying and addressing security issues within an organization. This achievement quickly led to the creation of a new role specifically for Jai, marking the beginning of his professional career in the cybersecurity industry.

Describing himself as a \"Jack of all Trades, Master of None,\" Jai has built a versatile skill set that spans Threat Hunting, Security Operations, Malware Analysis, Detection Engineering, Digital Forensics, and Incident Response. While his focus has been primarily on defensive security operations, threat intelligence, and threat hunting, Jai's early career included penetration testing and vulnerability assessments.

“Huntress allows me to have a flexible remote working environment, whilst still being able to use my mind to solve any hurdles encountered. This is all with the knowledge that everything is directly contributing to the ongoing security of small to medium-sized businesses which need protection the most.”

Jai’s academic credentials are impressive: a Bachelor of Information Technology, a Diploma of Government, and certifications such as OSCP, and GIAC iOS and MacOS Examiner (GIME). He has also served as an Academic Advisor for Security Blue Team’s ‘Blue Team Level 2’ (BTL2) certification, with his research being cited in renowned industry courses like SANS FOR500 (Windows Forensic Analysis).

Jai has been recognized with several prestigious awards, including:

2023: SANS Holiday Hack Challenge - Best Overall Answer Grand Prize Winner
2022: SANS Holiday Hack Challenge - Best Technical Answer Prize Winner
2021: SANS Holiday Hack Challenge - Most Creative Prize Winner
SANS Counter Hack Challenges: Core Netwars Continuous 2 - Top 1% Globally
SANS Counter Hack Challenges: DFIR Netwars Continuous 2 - Top 3% Globally

Before joining Huntress, Jai worked for CrowdStrike, further honing his expertise in the cybersecurity field.

What’s your favorite cybersecurity tip, Jai?

First, use a password manager, don't save your passwords in your browser or reuse them. Secondly, block advertisements—malicious ads are a common source of downloading software from fake websites that cause initial infections on a system.”

Outside of his professional life, Jai enjoys research, gaming, and spending time with his loved ones.
