Event Summary:
In the previous year, various organizations have been plagued by ransomware attacks which brought devastating consequences on industries. Ransomware is a type of malicious computer virus designed by cybercriminals to immobilize users from accessing their systems by encrypting their infected data, until a ransom is paid. What is even more alarming is not just the rapid proliferation of this extortionate hacking, but its relentless evolution which puts larger and more profitable businesses and institutions in great ordeal.
Recent surveys also show that these ransomware attacks will continue to thrive as cybercriminals are getting more aggressive in developing new and sophisticated threats. Thus, it is imperative for companies to remain vigilant and proactive in setting up new security and back-up mechanisms that can easily detect and prevent these attacks. It also pays to reassess their policies and procedures in place to fend off regulatory and operational risks.
