The Top 3 Threat Actors Targeting the Insurance Industry 

Threat actors target the insurance industry for a simple reason: insurers sit on concentrated volumes of sensitive personal data, financial records, and in many cases health information, all of which are highly valuable for resale on dark markets. 

According to recent analysis by Outpost24 research and threat intel, there are three threat actors in particular which have been attacking the insurance industry most often. 

According to the findings, the actors include Scattered Lapsus$ Hunters (who recently conducted a large-scale campaign targeting Salesforce environments), Cl0p (recently attacked the Oracle E-Business Suite), and NoName057(16) (a pro-Russian hacktivist group which frequently conducts DDoS attacks).
