Malware Trends: January 1 – March 31, 2026

Results for malware activity for the period January 1 – March 31, 2026, are now available at the Cybercrime Information Center. They include top 20 rankings of Top-level Domain, Domain Registrar, and Hosting operator (by ASN) and aggregate records of operators with malware activity.

Malicious IP activity reports (e.g., attackware and traffic injectors) dramatically increased during the current period. Fourteen previously unranked hosting networks appeared in our Ranking of Hosting Networks (ASNs) by Number of Malware Records. ApateWeb, a resilient redirector campaign, reappeared with vengeance. Reports of malicious scanners probing email server vulnerability or injection opportunities increased significantly as well.
