Over 200 Japanese Firms Paid Ransomware Attackers Most Failed to Recover Data
A recent survey by the Japan Institute for Promotion of Digital Economy and Community reveals that ransomware attacks have severely impacted Japanese businesses, with 507 of 1,107 responding firms reporting incidents. Of those targeted, 222 companies paid ransoms, yet 60% still could not restore their data, highlighting the risks of complying with attackers’ demands.
The survey, conducted in January, found that 141 firms recovered their systems without paying, while only 83 of the 222 ransom-paying companies successfully regained access. Financial losses varied widely: half of affected businesses incurred costs between 1 million yen ($6,300) and 50 million yen, while 4.3% faced damages exceeding 1 billion yen. Another 16% reported minimal or no financial impact.
The findings underscore a critical reality: paying ransoms does not guarantee data recovery and may further fund criminal operations. The report serves as a stark reminder of the persistent threat ransomware poses to corporate cybersecurity.

Nikkei Group — one of the world’s largest financial news outlets — announced that its Asia headquarters in Singapore is suffering from a ransomware attack that began on May 13.
The Japanese company, which owns The Nikkei and Financial Times newspapers, said in a statement Thursday that it has reported the attack to Japanese and Singaporean authorities.
While the company claimed that no data leak has been confirmed, it noted that the affected server “likely contained customer data” and that investigators are in the process of “”determining the nature and scope” of the attack.
