After the initial compromise, the video explains how Rankiteo's incident engine converts technical details into a normalized incident score. The incident score before the incident was 638 and after the incident was 566 with a difference of -72 which is could be a good indicator of the severity and impact of the incident.

In the next step of the video, we will analyze in more details the incident and the impact it had on Statista and their customers.

On 23 January 2026, a cybersecurity incident called "U.S. Data Breaches Reach Record Highs in 2025, Impacting Millions" came to light.

A recent report from the Identity Theft Resource Center (ITRC) reveals a sharp rise in data compromises across the United States between 2021 and 2025, highlighting a growing cybersecurity crisis with record-breaking breaches and millions of individuals affected.

The disruption is felt across the environment, and exposing Personal and financial data.

Formal response steps have not been shared publicly yet.

Overall, the incident is a reminder of why proactive monitoring and strong governance matter.

Finally, we try to match the incident with the MITRE ATT&CK framework to see if there is any correlation between the incident and the MITRE ATT&CK framework.

The MITRE ATT&CK framework is a knowledge base of techniques and sub-techniques that are used to describe the tactics and procedures of cyber adversaries. It is a powerful tool for understanding the threat landscape and for developing effective defense strategies.
