69% of Organizations Breached by Ransomware Over Past Year, Delinea Report Finds
SAN FRANCISCO, May 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Delinea, a pioneering provider of solutions for securing human and machine identities through centralized authorization, has unveiled new research highlighting how ransomware attacks have continued to surge over the past year, despite fewer victims paying. Over two-thirds (69%) of organizations globally have fallen victim to ransomware, with 27% being hit more than once. Meanwhile, attackers are harnessing AI to automate, scale, and sharpen their operations. Based on insights from over 1,000 IT and security leaders worldwide, the 2025 State of Ransomware Report reveals an increasingly volatile threat landscape driven by AI-powered attacks, stolen credentials, and Ransomware-as-a-Service (Raas). While only 57% of organizations paid ransoms, down from 76% in 2024, the frequency and impact of attacks continued to grow as threat actors turned to other tactics like extortion, with 85% of ransomware victims threatened with exposure. 'Ransomware has evolved into a shape-shifting, AI-enabled threat that no business can afford to underestimate,' said Art Gilliland, CEO at Delinea. 'In order to combat the sophistication of today's attacks, organizations must fight AI with AI and embrace proactive, identity security strategies like zero trust architecture, Privileged Access Management, and continuous credential monitoring to stay ahead.' AI: The Double-Edged Sword The report highlights the growing role of AI on both sides of the ransomware equation. Threat actors are using AI to automate phishing, impersonate trusted individuals via deepfakes, and accelerate attacks. At the same time, defenders are increasingly relying on AI to detect and respond to threats faster, with 90% of organizations now using AI in their ransomware defense strategies – primarily within Security Operations Centers (64%), for analyzing Indicators of Compromise (62%), and to prevent phishing (51%). Despite 90% of executives expressing concern over ransomware threats, many organizations continue to fall short in essential security practices, with only 34% enforcing least privilege access controls and just 57% implementing application control measures. Most victims reported extended recovery times, with 75% taking up to two weeks to recover.

AnyTech365 Announces Termination of Cooperation with J. Streicher
MARBELLA, Spain, May 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AnyTech365 announces today the termination of any cooperation with J. Streicher and brings to a close our current IPO effort. This decision follows a period during which J. Streicher failed to deliver on key commitments and were unable to raise the capital required to move the IPO process forward. Despite extended timelines and repeated assurances, the necessary progress was not achieved. Additionally, recent macroeconomic headwinds have led many companies to delay or suspend IPO plans. AnyTech365 believes that continuing to pursue the public markets at this stage, particularly by seeking a replacement M&A advisor, would be misaligned with current market sentiment and investor appetite. We will continue to explore opportunities to raise capital that support our long-term vision. This includes accelerating AI integration across our operations and products, pursuing strategic acquisitions within the AI sector, and capitalizing on the strong pipeline of growth opportunities we have cultivated. AnyTech365 remains confident in its direction and the strength of its business, and we thank our stakeholders for their continued trust and support. About AnyTech365 AnyTech365 is a leading European IT Security company, leveraging the latest advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology to create cutting-edge security products and services, enhance device security, and elevate the way people experience technology.
