State of Ransomware: Invest now or pay later

Ransomware attacks continue to grow, yet many organizations remain vulnerable to the exploits threat actors use. Once a cybercriminal enters a network, it is easy for them to move internally, and despite efforts to strengthen defenses, companies often lack effective detection and response capabilities.

In a survey conducted by CyberRisk Alliance’s Business Intelligence Unit, 300 cybersecurity, IT decision makers, and influencers, across various industries cited challenges and concerns associated with ransomware attacks including:

• Fear of losing data to threat actors
• Ransomware attacks exploiting remote workers and cloud computing
• Ransomware payouts and budgeting for cyber defense
• Learning from mistakes and protecting against future ransomware encounters
