Digital Hostages: The Evolution and Impact of Modern Ransomware
Ransomware has emerged as a critical global cybersecurity threat, with attacks costing organizations $2 million on average and causing $4.54 million in total damages per incident. From paralyzing critical infrastructure like the US Colonial Pipeline to disrupting healthcare systems, these sophisticated cyberattacks have transformed into a $20 billion criminal enterprise that threatens entire industries.
Join us for a conversation with Allan Liska, Senior Security Architect and Ransomware Specialist at Recorded Future, and one the world’s foremost experts on ransomware and cyber intelligence. We will explore the evolution of ransomware, how modern ransomware attacks take place, and perhaps most crucially, how do we balance the immediate pressure to restore operations with the broader imperative to discourage future attacks?
