Mapping the Criminal Economy Targeting Critical Infrastructure

TrendAI™ Research went inside the forums, marketplaces, and Telegram channels where access to factories, utilities, and energy firms is bought, sold, and weaponized. Combing through two years’ worth of data revealed an underground where financially motivated brokers and ransomware crews now operate alongside state-aligned hacktivists, sharing the same entry vectors, the same pirated training, and in some cases, the same personnel.

A Data-Driven View of Cyber Risk Structure: How Attack Pressure and Exposure Shape Damage

TrendAI™ Research analyzed 2,014 enterprises throughout 2025 and found that cyber damage is shaped by the interaction of attack pressure and exposure, with the highest-risk organizations experiencing up to 3.3 times as much damage as the lowest. The study introduces a Cyber Risk Positioning Map that can help organizations identify whether to prioritize reducing exposure, strengthening response capability, or both.
