Trying to find data on cybercrime case closure / conviction rates
Can you recommend a place for me to look? Or better yet, a report to read?
FBI has produced a few reports on how many criminal complaints they get, but I'm not seeing any numbers on how often anyone gets charged or convicted - proportionally (well, I have found some but they're mostly puff pieces by cybershills)
Cybersecurity experts report that FOG ransomware is being spread by cybercriminals falsely claiming connections to DOGE, as detailed in their investigation of malware samples containing this payload. #CyberSecurity #Ransomware https://www.trendmicro.com/en_us/research/25/d/fog-ransomware-concealed-within-binary-loaders-linking-themselve.html

Hello everyone! I’m proud and honored to introduce my very first academic white paper through SANS, which discusses the nuances and needs for planning for #ransomware in OT / industrial networks. https://www.sans.org/mlp/ics-ot-malware-and-ransomware/?utm_medium=Email&utm_source=HL-Global&utm_content=1468901_Simple_Framework_Whp_image&utm_campaign=ICS_OT_Malware_Ransomware_2025&utm_rdetail=Global&utm_goal=Leads&utm_type=Global_Campaign&is=be394332d8ab70db9bb29b280bd08c2899042252f80b48f1e01cd5b75d22b1c1

Several months after this thread, Conduent have finally filed at 8-K for a cyber incident.
They don’t say it, but it was ransomware. Ransomware group was Safepay. This is their second big ransomware incident.
The Fediverse had the thread first.

Sensata Technologies Holding plc filed an 8-K with the SEC for a ransomware attack which is remarkably honest, and pretty much the textbook example of how to do it well. https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1477294/000147729425000047/st-20250406.htm
#Ransomware – Ihr denkt, euch trifft es nicht? Denkt nochmal nach! 
Ob großes Unternehmen oder kleiner Handwerksbetrieb – Ransomware (sog. Verschlüsselungstrojaner) kennt keine Grenzen! Die Angreifenden gehen immer professioneller vor. Dank leicht zugänglicher Schadsoftware im Netz sind die Einstiegshürden niedrig – auch ohne großes IT-Wissen lassen sich Angriffe starten.

Oracle, Check Point, Twilio, Royal Mail, NYU and more are all in the hot seat this week!

An international ransomware group has claimed responsibility for a cyberattack against Australian IVF provider Genea, exfiltrating an alleged 700GB of sensitive patient data spanning six years and posting samples on the dark web to validate the breach. Despite Genea securing an interim NSW Supreme Court injunction to prohibit dissemination, the leaked data remained online as of mid-Wednesday, with affected patients not directly notified at the time. Cybersecurity experts note this tactic is typical ransomware pressure behavior, and the group—linked to prior supply chain incidents—has not issued public ransom demands. Genea, criticized for limited patient communication and lack of immediate support services, confirmed the breach involved personal and medical information and is working with the Australian government’s cyber coordination team, while urging clients to remain vigilant against identity fraud and phishing attempts. #CyberSecurity #Ransomware https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02-26/genea-ivf-cyber-incident-ransomware/104985242
There's a certain irony in a company that offers cyber security services getting hacked, but for Hexicor's many customers across Australia that irony may be lost.
