These issues have garnered increased public attention due to high-profile attacks in key sectors including manufacturing, infrastructure, healthcare, and banking.<\/p>\n<p>The potential damage inflicted by a successful ransomware attack is wide-ranging. Beyond the initial business disruption \u2013 where recovery times take an average of 23 days \u2013 and the cost of paying ransoms, companies face ongoing reputational damage. Further after-effects include the loss of IP, suspension of business operations, C-level resignations and forced lay-offs.<\/p>\n<p>To counteract these risks, there are three key areas enterprise IT leaders need to consider:<\/p>\n<p>1. Implementing a <strong>protection strategy<\/strong>, which covers aspects such as security and access policies, audits, sensitive data classification and compliance. For a deep dive into this topic, read our definitive guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.veritas.com\/en\/uk\/information-center\/enterprise-data-protection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Enterprise Data Protection<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>2. Testing and improving their <strong>speed of recovery<\/strong>, including recovery time objectives (RTO) and recovery point objectives (RPO).<\/p>\n<p>3. Improving the probability of <strong>early detection of potential ransomware attacks<\/strong>, including detection of anomalies and malware scanning. In nearly two-thirds of ransomware incidents reported since 2020, the attackers dwelled in the network for at least six months before detection.<\/p>\n<p>In my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=GX5Lx4RTr48\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">video<\/span> <\/a>beneath, I offer insights on how technology solutions can help organisations manage all three of these areas. Along with highlighting how leaders can mitigate the potential impact of a ransomware attack by reducing the risk of a data incident occurring and increasing their ability to react swiftly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Source:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.veritas.com\/blogs\/three-key-elements-of-ransomware-protection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Three Key Elements of Ransomware Protection<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ransomware has emerged as the number one cyber threat to organisations.
