Case Study: How Tools & Solutions Survived a Ransomware Attack

With the large number of high-profile incidents in the last few years, you’ve likely heard of ransomware attacks—a type of cybercrime where hackers use malware to encrypt network files, locking users out of the system until a ransom is paid. Within hours, a thriving business can completely lose access to its sensitive data. Business solutions company Tools & Solutions survived a ransomware attack. Then, to prevent future attacks from succeeding, the company updated internal guidance, identified and documented vulnerabilities, and reviewed its backup strategy while critically aligning key stakeholders.

Join us for this Case Study with security pro Partha Majumdar to explore the steps Tools & Solutions took following their ransomware incident and learn how to prevent ransomware attacks using a layered approach that combines security defenses with proactive measures to stop ransomware from taking hold in the first place. And if you run a distributed cloud system, you’ll get tips for your overall security strategy and specific techniques that will help you implement preventative, detective, incident response, and recovery controls.
