Owning Your Cybersecurity Mid-game Strategy

• Conventional approach for ransomware focuses on preventing initial access and relying on backup recovery—but it hasn’t slowed the extortion menace.
• Prevention is an uphill battle for defenders: attackers only need to succeed once. And, restoring data doesn’t negate downtime or the consequences of a data breach.
• Defenders need a much broader window to catch and stop ransomware before the damage is done and take necessary actions that can alert your team to the intrusion – command and control communications, data staging and lateral movement
