6 Reasons to Protect Your SaaS Data

At the same time, the economics behind extortion are weakening. Average payments dropped 66% between Q2 and Q3 2025, and only 23% of victims paid anything at all — the lowest rate ever recorded. As revenue shrinks, attackers are turning their attention to the systems that offer the greatest leverage once breached: identity providers.

Identity compromise now sits at the center of modern intrusion campaigns. Remote access compromise represented more than half of all Q3 incidents, and the boundary between social engineering, help-desk manipulation, and technical exploitation has nearly disappeared.
