The Cyber Threat Report 2025 in India outlines a troubling trend, as organisations continue to experience increasing volumes of cyberattacks. As India moves further along its digital transformation, threat actors are developing exploits to take advantage of growing gaps around endpoints, cloud workloads, and remote access infrastructures.

The cyber threat report India indicates that the banking, financial services and insurance (BFSI) segments, manufacturing, and government services are still being targeted by attackers more so than other segments; advanced persistent threats (APTs) and ransomware campaigns have increased 35% from the prior year.


Essential Observations from the India Threat Report

Seqrite Labs’ telemetry and threat intelligence network reported:


Growing ransomware activity: More than 40% of malware incidents reported involved ransomware or attempts at data exfiltration.

Increase in Cloud attack vectors: Misconfigured APIs and identity misuse ranked as the primary reasons for cloud breaches.

Endpoint exploits: Zero-day vulnerabilities remain the preferred entry point for attackers.

SMEs are the targets: SMEs accounted for 60% of the phishing and social engineering cyberattacks reported, underscoring the increased risk for these targets.


Improving Cyber Resilience with Artificial Intelligence and Zero Trust

The India Cyber Threat Report highlights that having a strong, AI-enabled defence posture is vital. Seqrite's enterprise security strategy combines Cybersecurity Mesh Architecture and the threat intelligence from Seqrite Labs to help organisations detect, respond, and recover rapidly.
