Black Kite's 2026 European Cyber Risk Report found a marked increase in ransomware activity across Europe (2,066 incidents from Jan 2025–Apr 2026), with Germany, the UK, France, Italy, and Spain accounting for nearly 70% of incidents; manufacturing and IT services were the most impacted sectors, third-party/supplier compromises drove many downstream breaches affecting multiple organizations, and regulators (NIS2, DORA) are increasing pressure on organizations to manage supplier cyber risk.
