Learnings From The Frontlines- Ransomware

The evolution of Ransomware has led to the World Economic Forum recently citing it as one of the top 5 economic risks facing organizations today. Over the last decade, APT actors and organized criminals deploying Ransomware-as-a-Service models have been responsible for delivering some of the most aggressive, destructive attacks, threatening organizations worldwide.

With Ransomware deployments dominating headlines, senior IT and business leaders are increasingly aware that some of their existing defense strategies are no longer working.

Delivered by experts on the frontlines of today’s cyber attacks, each session will offer insight into the global threat actors deploying ransomware – their tactics, techniques and procedures – and the steps needed to identify and mitigate the impact of an attack.
