Ransomware Under the Microscope: Exploits, Trends and Building a Plan
Ransomware continues to be big business for bad actors around the world. Despite globally coordinated law enforcement efforts to crack down, these gangs continue to disrupt operations for organizations of all sizes, from large healthcare systems to local governments, largely by relying on social engineering tactics. And, the threat landscape has only broadened with new “business” models, such as ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS). While combatting cyber threats can feel arduous, there are steps information security practitioners can take to protect their organizations both before, during and after an attack.
