What is Ransomware?

Ransomware is a type of malware attack where bad actors encrypt an organization's data and/or systems and demand payment to restore them. 

 

Why are Ransomware Assessments important to your business?

Ransomware victims face a tough decision: pay the ransom and hope that the attackers keep their word, or don’t pay and recover themselves. The methods bad actors use are common to many cyberattacks, but with one specific outcome: extorting a ransom payment.

Our Ransomware Readiness Assessment is designed to assess how well-positioned your organization is to deal with and respond to a ransomware event. It focuses on evaluating select cyber security controls: measures and procedures required to prevent, detect and respond to a ransomware event.

Process

  1. Kickoff Call
  2. Discovery Session - based on controls derived from NIST and CIS frameworks
  3. Follow-up Questions (if necessary)
  4. Report Generation and Analysis

This process is designed to limit customer involvement so that they can focus on what they do best.

 

Outcomes

  • Gain visibility into existing security controls and weaknesses for better security roadmap strategization
  • Tighten security and minimize risk of business downtime
  • Protect business assets and lower risk of ransomware attacks
