If ransomware makes it past your front line of defense, what's your next move?

Many businesses get caught in situations where they believe the classic line "this will never happen to me." That may be true until it does happen to them. From there, a series of unfortunate events will unroll, leaving the business vulnerable to large ransoms which they may or may not be able to pay. Don't be this business.

This past year, our incident response team has worked on several ransomware remediation projects, and through this effort learned more about how ransomware is deployed. During this presentation, we are going to walk you through how ransomware has changed over time, help you understand what a hacker looks for nowadays, and actionable protection steps to take.

In this presentation you will learn about:

• The evolution of ransomware
• Common characteristics of infection
• A hacker’s typical timetable
• Recommended actions for remediation
