Ransomware Analysis & Protection

Ransomware protection is a must for every organization as ransomware infections are on the rise in Middle East countries like UAE. Ransomware infections result in business disruptions and have adverse effects on company reputation. We help organizations affected by Ransomware in identifying the root cause behind the attack. We also provide mitigation so that companies can prevent such attacks from happening in the future. Infected users can visit No More Ransom or ID Ransomware site to know about the type of ransomware infection and decrypt the files for which decryption tools are available.

Ransomware attacks can happen due to many reasons such as :

  • Users clicking on links or attachments in an email without knowing that it can download malware that can result in Ransomware.
  • Users visiting compromised websites that will download Ranswomare stains to the computer without user knowledge.
  • RDP attacks that target open RDP ports to get access to the network. You can read about ways to prevent such attacks here.
  • Brute-force attacks that results in attackers gaining admin credentials. Organizations should have a mechanism to detect such brute-force attacks so that necessary actions can be taken to prevent the same.
  • Stolen credentials resulting in hackers gaining control of the network.

Having an offline backup & DR solution is a must for any organization so that data can be recovered without paying the ransom in case of a Ransomware infection. Vembu BDR provides offsite and Cloud DR.

Email is the main entry point for Ransomware and Email Security solution Vircom provides Ransomware protection whereas NeuShield provides Complete Data Protection Against All Types of Ransomware Attacks.

However, when it comes to Anti-Ransomware solutions there are typically only three ways that these products attempt to protect a device. Some products use only one of these techniques while other products use two or even all three of these techniques. Detection and blocking The first way that these products protect you is through detection. They use different techniques, such as signatures, machine learning, heuristics, behavior analysis, or other means to detect the ransomware and then block it. Detecting and blocking ransomware is the typical way that Anti-Ransomware with antivirus software works. This is very effective for known ransomware and other malware types. However, Fully Undetectable (FUD) ransomware cannot be blocked with these solutions. To make matters worse, ransomware authors will routinely check their ransomware against services like VirusTotal to ensure that their ransomware cannot be detected by...
