Abstract curved lines in shades of blue and purple flowing against a transparent background.

Our experts take you through today’s ransomware landscape and the key considerations for preparing for and responding to an incident.

Understanding the Ransomware Attack and Response Lifecycle

Ransomware attacks have evolved, and encryption is only one part of the picture. Attackers may already have gained access, moved through the environment or exfiltrated data before an organization becomes aware of the incident. This webinar highlights the importance of understanding this broader attack lifecycle and the activity that can precede the visible ransomware event.

In this webinar, Beazley Security and Halcyon explore the initial stages of a ransomware response, from understanding how modern attacks unfold to the technical, operational and business decisions organizations may face.

Topics covered include:

  • Common ransomware myths and misconceptions
  • Modern ransomware tactics and attacker objectives
  • The ransomware attack lifecycle
  • Incident response considerations
  • Business continuity and recovery
