Ransomware Attacks: Strategies for Prevention and Recovery

A recent Osterman Research report on “Ransomware Attacks: Strategies for Prevention and Recovery” delivers a fascinating update on the state of the threat class that concerns CISOs and their security teams the most. Ransomware attacks are not only growing but increasing in sophistication, complexity, and the ability to elude defenses. And they continue to exploit email and other under-protected applications and systems. Attendees can expect actionable insights as Osterman Research’s Senior Analyst, Michael Sampson, and Bob Hansmann from the Infoblox Security Products Group, drill down into two key areas of the report on “internal threat signals” and the expanded role of “threat intelligence”. Some of the discussion will cover areas such as: - Visibility of both the external and internal attack surface - Monitoring for baseline deviations for detecting insider threats - Interrupting communications for C2 or data exfiltration - Leveraging network data for security visibility and control
