Initial Access Brokers Report
The Rapid7 2025 Access Brokers Report takes an in-depth look at the underground marketplace for initial access to corporate networks. Our threat intelligence analysts examined hundreds of initial access broker (IAB) posts across three major forums to uncover new insights for detecting and containing these risks before they escalate.

Ransomware Radar Report
The ransomware landscape continued to evolve rapidly in 2024. Threat actors persisted with their innovative tactics, and Rapid7 Labs researchers were monitoring their every move. The Ransomware Radar Report details the behavioral trends our team uncovered based upon their independent research as well as data samples from Rapid7’s Incident Response team.
