Magnet Virtual Summit // The Evolution of Ransomware – Attack, Investigation, Response & Prevention Strategies

Ransomware attacks can present an existential threat to a targeted organization, and over time they have morphed and changed, becoming ever more sophisticated. With global ransomware attacks estimated as high as 204,000,000 incidents in 2018, this is not only a problem that is not going away soon, but one where prevention efforts are widely missing the mark. This presentation will look at the evolution of ransomware attack methods, and will focus on successful response and investigation strategies as well as emerging approaches to more effective prevention methods.
