Ransomware attacks have gone from being a notable threat to a national crisis. Because of the profitability of the attacks, cyber criminals have gotten increasingly sophisticated and their ranks have grown. The Kaseya attacks this summer have underlined how many different vulnerabilities a company can have, including through an MSP. The bottom line: it's often no longer a question of "if," but "when." Organizations need to take action to protect their data. In this episode, Paul Caiazzo, CISO at Avertium, has a rich history in ransomware negotiation.In this episode, he outlines the ways that a company can build their defenses against ransomware attacks and minimize the damage if they do occur.
