Implementing An Effective Incident Response Strategy To Protect Against Ransomware

As these attacks become more frequent, one emerging pattern is that those who are prepared for cyberattacks and carry out incident response training come out strongest. When companies are unprepared for incidents and have no plan in place, they tend to go into panic mode. The first 24 to 48 hours are a blur, which provides the attacker with more time on the systems to get what they need before they are caught.

As a result of this, businesses must move from an “if I am attacked” mindset to knowing it’s only a matter of when and preparing for these incidents in advance by implementing a well-tested and practiced incident response strategy.
