Ransomware Readiness: The Rise of Double and Triple Extortions Registration

Duration:60 minutes

Abstract:

Ransomware and the propulsion of the extortion economy has rapidly eclipsed into a national priority. Recently, we observed the catastrophic impact of a widescale ransomware attack impacting gas pipelines and raising national gas prices overnight. In the last 12 months, we’ve observed successful attacks on our US water supply, a $50M ransom demand on a global manufacturer, and an alarming increase in healthcare and K-12 education ransomware attacks aimed at limiting patient care and student learning.

In this webinar, we will review the following items:

How to Prevent, Detect and Recover from Ransomware
Post-COVID Ransomware Landscape
Anatomy of a Ransomware Attack
Best Practice Strategies to Leverage Immediately
