Ransomware Workshop: Get a customised action plan for rapid response
How should you respond if your organisation falls victim to a ransomware attack? In our workshop, you'll gain insights into how to respond effectively to a possible ransomware attack - so your business can quickly get back to normal operations.
What is a ransomware attack?
A ransomware attack is a cyberattack where a malicious actor encrypts company data and demands a ransom for the decryption key - holding the victim hostage.
The attack often exploits software vulnerabilities or human error to infiltrate the network. Prevention and preparedness are key elements of effective protection against ransomware attacks.
This includes: regularly updating systems, training employees in IT security practices and implementing advanced systems that involve threat detection - also known as detection.
In the event of an attack, it's crucial to have a robust backup solution and a clear plan for restoring systems without complying with the attacker's demands.
