If you are referring to a "client" in the context of a victim or an incident response report, the following is a summary of the current threat landscape for Akira Ransomware as of April 2026:
Threat actors frequently exploit vulnerabilities in VPN products like SonicWall (CVE-2024-40766) and Cisco AnyConnect (CVE-2020-3259) to gain entry.
The group has extorted an estimated $245 million USD from over 1,400 victims globally since its emergence in 2023.
While originally focused on Windows, the group has expanded to encrypt Linux and VMware ESXi virtual machines. Most recently, in June 2025, they began targeting Nutanix AHV environments.
Recent research indicates Akira can move from initial access to full network encryption in under four hours .
