How to prevent ransomware, slow its spread, and respond if you get it

from The Backup Wrap-Up

This week, Prasanna and Mr. Backup (W. Curtis Preston) review a series of posts made by Snorkel42, who previously appeared on this podcast in the episode called "Security expert rips Okta for their response to hack." Things were recorded out of order, so this is the episode where we discovered him on Reddit, and tried our best to distill several thousand words into about 30 mins of advice on how to protect against ransomware. We talk about how to prevent getting it in the first place, how to limit its damage if you do get it, and how to respond and restore your data once that happens. There is a ton of really good advice here, so check it out! Here are the three posts:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/tdvbp4/security_cadence_okay_fine_lets_talk_ransomware/https://www.reddit.com/r/SecurityCadence/comments/tedapy/security_cadence_ransomware_part_2_actions_on/https://www.reddit.com/r/SecurityCadence/comments/tfm927/security_cadence_ransomware_part_3_the_worst_case/
