Beyond Ransomware

Best Practices for Smart Security Operations & to build Cyber Resilient Future

In a ransomware attack, cyber extortionists deploy malicious software to infiltrate computer systems and encrypt data, holding it hostage until the victim pays a ransom. Ransomware can have an even bigger impact on an organization than a data breach, but Gartner research estimates that more than 90% of ransomware attacks are preventable.

Many organizations end up paying massive amounts of money to their attackers, often through cyber-insurance protection, but the long-term effect is likely to be more ransomware attacks. Instead of building ransomware payments into the budget, organizations should focus on preparation and early mitigation. CISOs and security leaders can focus on ransomware response actions.
