It's not news that ransomware is a deadly threat to businesses of all sizes. But other than the occasional report of a multibillion dollar breach at Solarwinds or Target, what can we learn from these incursions so our companies don't become the next victim?
Companies that use Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems should be acutely aware of how their network is protected. After all, cyber criminals have created specific ransomware campaigns that seek out your company's most crucial information: Your Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system!
In this groundbreaking 3-part Video Case Study, John Bassett, GSI CISO and CTO, offers an unprecedented post-mortem analysis of real-world ransomware attacks. What was attacked? How did they respond? What kind of damage was done? How can we avoid the same fate? These are some crucial questions John answers in this 3-part series.
