Ransomware Assessment

A Rising Cyber Threat Holding Data Hostage

Ransomware is a type of malware that prevents users from accessing their devices or networks until a ransom payment is made. Typically, it is propagated through phishing emails and compromised web pages. Moreover, cyber threats have become more advanced with the rise of new strategies, such as double extortion, where attackers encrypt the data and then threaten to release it to the public domain.

Why Do You Need Ransomware Assessment?

It may have been around for years, but has only recently gained real traction with hackers. Its strength lies in encryption technology, which covertly locks sensitive data and demands payment through cryptocurrency to release it.

Notably, losses associated with ransomware amounted to approximately twenty billion dollars, excluding indirect costs such as loss of reputation. Furthermore, it’s estimated to reach beyond 260 million by the next decade.

Meanwhile, ransomware attacks have increased rapidly, with experts predicting that 37% of organizations and businesses will be affected in the near future.

01

Policies, Procedures and Control Review

We will check whether your security policies set regarding patch management, incident response, endpoint protection, permissions, and back-ups are practical and effective to help shield your data from exposure.

02

Employee Education and Prevention

Ransomware is usually delivered to users by way of phishing and spam emails which often are sent to the employee level. We conduct a variety of cyber security awareness training in your organization so that such situations do not arise.

03

Endpoint Protection Services

The endpoints which include laptops, tablets, and mobile devices are however among the most attacked devices during a ransomware attack. Vulnerabilities will be identified regarding the security of your devices in our efforts to ensure that they are secured from infections.

04

Pre-emptive Security Controls

The best response towards ransomware is prevention. We can conduct a mock attack for your organization to formulate best practices and response plans to be employed should an attack take place.

Who is at Risk?

Individuals who are part of a society that relies on at least a couple of data-storing devices and instruments connected to a computer network are inherently susceptible to attacks. This includes ordinary individuals, state departments, public order services, medical facilities, and all other organizations linked to critical infrastructures.

 

Recovering from a ransomware attack can often pose more challenges than one might anticipate and typically involves seeking the help of a data recovery specialist, for example. Even in cases where ransoms are paid, companies cannot be certain that file retrieval will actually occur.

 

Companies with good backup schemes, especially when supported by a strong ransom and business recovery plan, are more resilient to such secondary threats. Nevertheless, the most logical strategy is to assess proactive measures to prevent these threats altogether. Accorian can help you with all of these concerns.
