SecurityScorecard 2025 Global Third-Party Breach Report Reveals Surge in Vendor-Driven Attacks

SecurityScorecard’s 2025 Global Third-Party Breach Report analyzes 1,000 breaches and finds that third‑party incidents are widespread — 35.5% of 2024 breaches were third‑party related, 41.4% of ransomware attacks originate via third parties (with group C10p noted), and high-risk sectors and countries are identified; the report urges real‑time vendor monitoring, secure‑by‑design procurement, stronger TPRM, and hardening high‑risk infrastructure to disrupt ransomware supply chains.
