#Ransomware #Resilience in 2024 – Preparing for the #1 threat After a short break in which I went to Paris with my Wavestone colleagues to witness a new brand reveal (see the updated colour scheme 💙), it’s time for the penultimate instalment of my 6-week series on 2024 hot topics in Operational Resilience. This week, we’re diving into 🏴☠️ #Ransomware #Resilience. The pervasive threat of single, double or even triple extortion through ransomware is clear, as is the market response: "How can we enhance our resilience to withstand and recover from these attacks?" The answer lies in building a 💡 robust ransomware resilience framework that not only prevents attacks but also ensures swift recovery. In my experience, several key strategies are crucial for enhancing ransomware resilience: 🛡 #Proactive #Threat #Detection and #Response – Early detection is critical. Implementing advanced threat detection systems that utilise AI for heuristic rather than signature analysis could make all the difference in identifying and mitigating suspicious activity before it escalates. 📂 #Comprehensive #Backup #Solutions – Ensuring that you have secure, offsite, and regularly tested backups is essential. These backups should be immune to ransomware attacks, providing a reliable way to restore data without paying a ransom. 🎢 #End2End #Testing – Testing your ability to restart and deliver your minimum viable business chain quickly is essential. This means bringing together business, operations, cyber and IT teams to perform exercises in realistic conditions. 🧩 #Employee #Training and #Awareness – Employees are often the first line of defence. Regular training programs that focus on recognising phishing attempts and other social engineering tactics can significantly reduce the risk of ransomware infections. Overall, building ransomware resilience is not a one-time effort but truly a continuous process. Want to learn more?
