Protecting Your Agency and Data from Ransomware



EMC, RSA, and Carahsoft are hosting an exclusive briefing for federal agencies to share intelligence and lessons learned. Space is limited, so don’t miss this great opportunity!
 
Since the start of this year, there has been an increase in frequency and sophistication of ransomware attacks. Criminals deploy ransomware everywhere and hold entire organizations hostage on a daily basis.
 
To combat these threats, federal agencies need to think and respond differently to minimize the fallout of an eventual attack. Help us get the conversation started on how to mitigate threats and their impact. At this executive event, you will learn about:
 
  • What's different about the latest ransomware and extortionware cases and how IT teams are approaching the problem 
  • Recommendations and which agencies have published them
  • What IT teams can do to protect their environments 
  • Remediation best practices and what IT teams can do to recover from an attack
  • How organizations can build and implement a highly automated and consistent approach to sustaining a comprehensive business resiliency program
 
Reserve your seat today and join an exclusive group of your peers to learn how others are approaching this problem and hear real-world advice on how to prepare for and respond to a ransomware attack.
