India, the United States, and brazil recorded the highest number of hazards in the manufacturing, healthcare, and technology sectors, according to the Attack Surface Risk Management (ASRM) statistics in Trend Micro's 2023 mid-year cybersecurity threat report, "Stepping Ahead of Risk."

The analysis discovered the most popular methodologies, strategies, and trends in threat actor activity using native sensors across endpoints, email and messaging, network and web traffic, and cloud and operational technologies.

According to the research, the manufacturing sector recorded the most risk event detections, with the USA, China, the Netherlands, France, and russia facing the most email dangers. This information was based on ASRM data. Retail and government industries were also shown to be vulnerable, in addition to healthcare and technology.

Adobe had a 25.4% share of the vendor vulnerability count, followed by apple (1%), and microsoft (14.5%). 1.63 billion high-risk email threats were found, including 1.43 billion malicious emails and phishing URLs, 17 lakh pieces of malware, and 2.42 lakh threats involving corporate email compromise.
