The Top 4 Threats We Found by Investigating Every Alert for a Quarter

Prophet Security analyzed confirmed malicious activity across customer environments from May through July 2026 and identified four primary attack patterns. Identity systems were targeted in approximately half of all confirmed attacks, with the analysis examining both successful and blocked incidents.

Why it matters: Security teams managing identity infrastructure should understand which attack patterns succeeded against peers, as identity remains a primary entry point and this research may reveal gaps in current defenses.
