Dubai, UAE – February 19, 2026 – New research from Acronis shows that while cyber threats remain highly active across the UAE, organisations are becoming markedly better at stopping attacks before they escalate. Despite continued exposure to phishing links and malicious campaigns throughout 2025, malware execution in the UAE declined steadily after early-year spikes, pointing to stronger defences and faster disruption of attack chains.

The findings, drawn from Acronis’ latest global threat analysis for the second half of 2025, reveal that malware activity in the UAE was concentrated in the first months of the year, peaking around March before dropping consistently through the summer. This uneven pattern suggests short-lived, campaign-driven attacks rather than persistent background infections.
