Threat Actors
Bitsight groups threat actors by motivation and operating model. Ransomware actors are financially motivated groups that adapt tactics based on profit opportunity and law enforcement pressure. APT actors are nation-state or nation-backed groups driven by political, geopolitical, or strategic intelligence goals. Hacktivists are motivated by political, ideological, or religious beliefs and often use attacks to promote a cause, punish targets, or gain attention; they operate independently of their governments.
