12 Steps to Protect Against Ransomware

With cyberattacks on the rise, organizations around the world are in danger of falling victim to ransomware. Learn how exactly you can mitigate these threats in 12 steps.

According to the National Cyber Security Center, in 2021 there was a huge increase in the amount of ransomware attacks reported globally. Supply chain attacks increased dramatically, double extortion enabled hackers to export stolen data to separate locations, and unpatched vulnerabilities continued to be one of the most common exploits hackers used to steal data. To top it off, the US Treasury credited $5.2 billion in bitcoin transactions to ransomware.  

Unfortunately, ransomware has shown no signs of slowing down, and with ransomware on the rise, attacks will continue to infect schools, businesses, hospitals, banks, and government offices, to name but a few. Hundreds of new strains of ransomware continue to flood the internet daily. So, how are you supposed to better protect your organization?
