Check Point’s latest July 2026 threat report shows a worrying pattern: attacks aren’t just happening more—they’re trending upward like a slow boil. In July, each organization faced an average of 2,336 cyberattacks per week—up 3% from June and a whopping 16% year-over-year. The month-over-month jump may feel “small,” but security teams are focused on the bigger story: since May, weekly attack volume has climbed 13.7% cumulatively. Translation: this isn’t a one-off wave. Region-wise, Latin America leads with 3,561 attacks per week (+19% YoY), followed by Asia-Pacific at 3,316. Africa looks relatively calmer with -5% YoY. Country spotlight: Taiwan tops Asia-Pacific at 4,306 attacks per organization per week. Industry-wise, education is the prime target (4,848/week, +14% YoY), then government and telecom. Energy/utilities (+20%) and hospitality (+28%) round out the top five—likely tied to summer travel exposure. Enterprises and governments should double down on patching, access control, monitoring/response—and treat GenAI-driven data exposure risk as a real priority. #CyberSecurity #ThreatIntel #Ransomware #NetworkSecurity #GenAI #SOC
