Lead: The lead is easy to follow and highlights the main topics of the rest of the article. There was one topic that was mentioned that I felt like I wanted to know more about in the lead. The concept of the actor's background dictating the attack is very interesting and I think elaborating it with a few more sentences would be a bit more informative.

Content: The content in your article defines the different categories of threat actors in a very neutral and organized manner. I was able to understand the definitions of the different threat actors. While reading the article, I felt the need to look up a few terms since they were unfamiliar to me. Hyperlinking the term "hacktivism" with a wiki link might be helpful to the reader. As a bonus to the reader, it would also be helpful to include examples of historical cases for each of the types of threat actors or at least an example. I think the article can stand alone without the examples, but it would make for a fun read.

Tone and Balance: The article is balanced and neutral. After reading it, I did not get the impression that the authors are biased or representing opinions.

Sources and References: The sources and references supported the text. Some of the references were ResearchGate links. Maybe replacing the ResearchGate link with the actual article might be helpful.

Organization: The organization was great. The topics mentioned in the lead were explained in the body. The subcategories were easily distinguishable and available. The hyperlinks included throughout the article were very helpful as well. There were a few sentences that I think needed a bit more TLC. In the Nation-state actors section, the last sentence seems to have had something deleted. "Nation-state attacks can include: strategic sabotage, critical infrastructure attacks, or Nation states considered an incredibly large group of threat actors in the cyber realm." Also, there is punctuation missing in Thrill seekers and trolls in the sentence "Nation-state attacks can include: strategic sabotage, critical infrastructure attacks, or Nation states considered an incredibly large group of threat actors in the cyber realm."

Overall: The article was improved by the addition of the threat actors section. The addition also defined subcategories under the main categories of threat actors which is great. I don't know enough about the topic, but would it be feasible to include the environments where these threat actors frequent? For example, trolls on social media.
